Juan,

Some feedback:
1) LIBC Usage:
    Which LIBC did you use?   The standard 2.03 from Simtel or a patched
version using Charles's 2.03 source patch?

    If you use the patched version then the resulting exe is then 2K and XP
compatible.
2) Will / have you sent the DJGPP changes to the gzip maintainer? That way
the changes may / will be incorporated into the enxt release.

3) Thanks for doing the port.

Andrew
