Add -v to the compilation command line and post the results here.

The DJGPP FAQ describes in section 6.5 the most ``popular'' reasons
for this problem; perhaps one of them is yours.

Does a file by that name already exist in the same directory?

If so, I think this is a known bug with W2K: it returns some bogus
error code when a DJGPP program tries to overwrite an existing file
with a new version, and confuses the library.  This is solved in the
development sources of the DJGPP library, but you will have to rebuild
RHIDE to get a fixed version.

As a work-around, try deleting the previous version of the file (e.g.,
from another DOS box) before saving it.
