You don't want to release any code linked with that libc; it has a bug
whereby all DJGPP programs will instantly crash under Windows.  There
are several others as well.  The latest alpha (980628) is better, but
still not perfect.

Perhaps you can profile the code and find just what was so slow in the
previous version, then ask specifically.
