It is best to put C:\DJGPP\BIN before any other C compiler's bin 
subdirectory.  If any of the directories that precede DJGPP have cpp.exe, 
you are in trouble.  I would suggest putting DJGPP\BIN before everything 
else, unless you have grave reasons not to do so.  (This probably has 
nothing to do with your main problem, though.)

That semi-colon might well be the source of your grief.  Remove it and 
try again.  (DJGPP variable cannot include multiple file names, and 
therefore cannot have semi-colons.)

If that doesn't help, add -v to the gcc command line, run gcc with stderr 
redirected to a file (use `redir' utility if you need) and post here 
everything that is printed into that file.

Of course, it will!  Your LIBRARY_PATH isn't set correctly by DJGPP.ENV 
because it is derived from the DJGPP environment variable, and I suspect 
that the semi-colon screws it up.
