Hi,    :-)

I'll have to test this with Gautier's 3D engine (Ada), esp. since
4.5.2 (IIRC) didn't compile it correctly anymore. I mean, I blindly
figure 4.6.0 won't have the same bugs or regressions (hopefully). I
guess I could always try 4.5.3 also if necessary. (It would be a shame
to lose the ability to compile the 3D engine since there isn't a lot
of Ada stuff targeted for DOS.) Actually, John Herro recently
"open-sourced" his old (formerly shareware) Ada95 tutorial, but I've
never looked closely at it (though I should since I don't grok Ada).

I know "tasking" doesn't work with DJGPP's GNAT, but I also know that
Khusraw patched FSU Pthreads to finally work with modern DJGPP and
p7zip 9.13 recently (see FreeDOS -> iBiblio -> 7zip or Sac.sk). If
interested, somebody could make a proper DJGPP package for that.

Also, GCC 4.6.0 supports the Go language (from Google), but it appears
you didn't build that here. I don't need or want it, just curious and
mentioning it in case you forgot or can shed some light on it!    :-)
