Well I haven't got my rsxntdj up and running quite yet but I think that I know
what the problem is you aren't reading from the correct specs file.
Do this test:
on a dos prompt type

gcc -v

and you should get back:

reading specs from c:\rsxntdj\lib\specs
gcc version 2.x.x

the c:\rsxntdj being the directory that you installed rsx in. You should not be
reading the specs file from the djgpp directory as it does not define the
-Zwin32 option. Also make sure you patch the rsx specs file.
To patch the specs file
fix the link section like this

*link:
%{Zwin32: -Lc:/rsxntdj/lib/all} %{Zmt: -Lc:/rsxntdj/lib/mt} %{!Zmt:
-Lc:/rsxntdj/lib/st}

just cut and paste it in. And there you go it should solve the problem.

Mike

P.S. if you anyone does get their version of rsxntdj working with gcc ver 2.8.1
could you post a message. I think I shall try and install it again. Third times
always a charm right?
