That sounds suspiciously as if the C and C++ compiler pieces are of
different versions-- GCC 2.7.x didn't support -mpentium but more recent
versions do.  You might try compiling it both ways, using -v, and seeing
what the versions are.  (The lines that start "GNU C version..." and
"GNU C++ version...".)  If they aren't the same, that is probably your
problem, and you should get gcc281b.zip and install it.  You most likely
want both of them to be 2.8.1.
