Hi,

For some time now I've been experimenting with using dxe files to provide 
some 'plugin'-style system for a program I'm working on. I have, however, 
run into two problems:

   -) When compiling a C++ program (either a .cc file or -x c++), the 
       linker can't find _dxe_load().
   -) I can't seem to generate .dxe's when they use libc functions,
       even though I specify -lc -lgcc etc. on the dxegen command line.
       I always get the following undefined references:
             _main (-defsym _main=_dxe_start_symbol kludges this)
             end
             djgpp_first_ctor
             djgpp_first_dtor
       and two other djgpp_ things I can't remember of the top of my head.

Is there any way to get this to work?

Also, is there any way to get a LFN version of _argv[0]?

Any help is appreciated; replies via e-mail are preferred.
