Subject: gcc 2.81 hangs under Win95

Dear Delorie,
I'm seeing a similar thing to Noam Arbel (see below) - running gcc in a
Win95 DOS box, it appears
to do nothing at all (flashing cursor sitting on the next line, no
output of any sort even with -v
option).  If I feed it a Ctrl-C, it exits with "Encountered signal
SIGINT".  I've double-checked
the list of installed components, and I've re-downloaded and unzipped
gcc281b.zip, without success.
Now downloaded and unzipped gcc272b.zip over the previous files, works
without any problem!

Best regards,
	Mike Haben

I am running in a dos window under win95. I have also tried running
through
rhide but I got the same results.

The output og go32-v2 is:

DPMI memory available: 22571 Kb
DPMI swap space available: 7197 Kb

The complete command line was :

C:\djgpp\work>gcc -o hello -v hello.c

which is a one liner (printf("Hello World"); - ofcourse)

and gcc hangs. I get the same result if I just call gcc with no
arguments at
all.

Thanks for all your help,

Noam Arbel
