Hey, that's DJGPP Version 1.x!!!

I strongly recommend to upgrade to DJGPP 2.01.

Here is now you fault: You said that you made the hello.exe
like:

gcc -v -o hello.exe hello.o

but in DJGPP Version 1.x it was not possible to create a real
.exe file with such a line. The above line produces a COFF file
which should be run with go32.exe or use the following syntax to
create an exe file:

gcc -o hello hello.o
coff2exe hello


BTW: You can reproduce similar errors at any time
by renaming for instance any text file to have the
.exe suffix and then try to run it :-)

Do you have modified setdjgpp.bat?? Since the normal
syntax for calling it is:

call setdjgpp c:\djgpp c:/djgpp
