Yes, I can. I tried some simple C++-files and it worked properly.

In the file makedefs.grx and the area for djgpp one is asked for 
default compiler switches. I deleted the "#"s in front of 
CCOPT += $(BUTT)
CCOPT += -mcpu=i386
because i was asked to do so.

I read about this. My SHELL is cmd.com.
