These are insufficient details to help.  However, I've never seen those
error messages coming from gcc, so the first thing I would look for is
having programs from a different compiler somewhere on your PATH.

The second thing I would look for is an incorrect setting of the DJGPP
environment variable.  DJGPP comes with instructions, in the form of
'readme.1st', if you haven't read it, I suggest you do so.  Also make
sure that you have NOT altered 'djgpp.env' in any way.

If these ideas don't help, please post a _small_ source file that
generates the errors, along with a copy of the output of gcc when
invoked with the '-v' parameter; i.e.:

   redir -o gcc.log -eo gcc -Wall -v -o myprog.exe myprog.c

Then post the file 'gcc.log'.  It would also help to see your
environment, as shown by "set > environ.lst".  Further instructions on
posting a system report can be found in chapter 6.12 of the DJGPP
