	Backslashes are not escaped inside #include directives, and DJGPP will
emit a warning (at least on my system) if the first example above is
used to point to an absolute location.  Typing #include
"drive:\dir1\dir2\...\file.h" will work (though, as John mention, it
should never be used to point to standard include files) with DJGPP.
