I have been having a similar problem on WinNT; Using gcc2.95.2, I was
getting this same "installation problem: cannot exec 'cpp'". The FAQ
says that with gcc2.8.x and older that cpp has been moved. It claims
that the problems.txt file gives instructions on what to change in
DJGPP.env, but as noted, there is no mention of this problem.

The FAQ also claims that the "COMPILER_PATH" environment variable might
need to be set. But fails to suggest what it might need to be set to.

I eventually added D:\DJGPP\lib\gcc-lib\djgpp\2.952 to my PATH (this is
where cpp, cpp1 etc reside).

Now I get the error:
C:\Program Files\DevStudio\MyProjects\VCServices\foo2>make
d:/djgpp/bin/gpp.exe -c -o main.o main.cpp
-IC:/[own_include_path]/include -ID:\DJGPP\include\sys
cpp.exe: ../include/sys/version.h: No such file or directory (ENOENT)
make.exe: *** [main.o] Error 1

(I get the same message whether I have the -ID:\DJGPP\include\sys in or
not)

Obviously cpp is looking in the wrong place for the include files. Where
is the information on sorting this problem out? Why is it not in the
FAQ? Why does the FAQ refer to a document that doesn't even mention the
problem?

P.S. One reply to this claimed that Andreas' DJGPP entry in PATH should
be moved before the ESX entry....the PATH variable was listed and
plainly contains no reference to ESX. (Unless it's in C:\WINDOWSor
C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND)
