Thanks for this important information. Many similar reports were posted about using Make. Could you check if Make crashes NTVDM only if the compiler is invoked from Make? > Maybe it had to do with whether the sub-djgpp program opens files... Every DJGPP program opens at least one file: DJGPP.ENV. So this probably isn't the reason for the crashes. GCC is special in that it itself runs DJGPP programs. Perhaps you need deeper nesting of DJGPP programs to cause NTVDM to crash. For example, what if you invoke Bash from Make and then invoke ls from that Bash? Another possibility is that applications which *write* to files are those in trouble (if file access is at all the problem, which I doubt, frankly).
