I tried to build my program using both versions of ld.exe (RSXNTDJ and the
standard one) to no avail.

I also re-downloaded gcc281b.zip and bnu281b.zip and replaced all the
corresponding files and that still got me nowhere.

I'm setting up Mingw32 to see if it works with that and therefore determine
whether the problem is with my system (or system configuration) or with ld.exe.
