I just tried to build djlsr202 with DJGPP v2.01 and gcc 2.7.2.1, and it worked flawlessly for me on a plain DOS machine (DOS version 5.0). > It is probably a good idea to test build DOS compiler under DOS, > not only with a cross-compiler. I don't understand why did you come to this conclusion. The DJGPP distribution (djdev and djlsr) *are* tested on DOS machines, and it did work for all those who tried, including myself. There can always be bugs that only happen on specific system configurations, but please don't suggest that the beta-testing is done in some sloppy way, because that's not true.
