I've set TEST_FINDS_EXE, so hopefully the finding gcc thing should be 
fixed. I've just looked over the FAQ again, and didn't see any mention of 
this. This seems like a easy enough thing to solve that probably comes up 
often. Why is it not there?

On the other note, this is the snippet from config.log where it looks for 
(n)curses:

--- BEGIN SNIPPET ---
configure:1150: checking for initscr in -lncurses
configure:1169: gcc -o conftest -g -O2   conftest.c -lncurses   1>&5
d:/djgpp/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -lncurses
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
configure: failed program was:
#line 1158 "configure"
#include "confdefs.h"
/* Override any gcc2 internal prototype to avoid an error.  */
/* We use char because int might match the return type of a gcc2
     builtin and then its argument prototype would still apply.  */
char initscr();

int main() {
initscr()
; return 0; }
configure:1198: checking for initscr in -lcurses
configure:1217: gcc -o conftest -g -O2   conftest.c -lcurses   1>&5
d:/djgpp/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -lcurses
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
configure: failed program was:
#line 1206 "configure"
#include "confdefs.h"
/* Override any gcc2 internal prototype to avoid an error.  */
/* We use char because int might match the return type of a gcc2
     builtin and then its argument prototype would still apply.  */
char initscr();

int main() {
initscr()
; return 0; }
configure:1246: checking for initscr in -lcur_colr
configure:1265: gcc -o conftest -g -O2   conftest.c -lcur_colr   1>&5
d:/djgpp/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -lcur_colr
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
configure: failed program was:
#line 1254 "configure"
#include "confdefs.h"
/* Override any gcc2 internal prototype to avoid an error.  */
/* We use char because int might match the return type of a gcc2
     builtin and then its argument prototype would still apply.  */
char initscr();

int main() {
initscr()
; return 0; }
--- END SNIPPET ---

This doesn't look right to me... is /djgpp/lib not in the LIBPATH by default?

I'll tinker with it. But any suggestions are more than welcome.

Thanks,
