Last times I tried to build gcc-2.96 snapshots for DJGPP (more than a 
month ago) I got stuck in stage 2 as garbage collector seems to broken 
for DJGPP (as result 1st stage compiler is not able to compile large files 
like gcc/cccp.c). So I didn't check whether this hack works after 
installation. 

However I'm rather often leaving bootstrapping CVS version og gcc-
2.96 in Linux (not much to do. I'm simply leaving script when going 
away). Tests in Linux show that -imacros ../include/foo.h works in 
Linux with gcc-2.96 (of course if I replace foo.h with real name)
