For those still using DJGPP, I would recommend conversion to MingW32
http://www.nanotech.wisc.edu/~khan/software/gnu-win32/>. It's a much more
useful Win32 port, although DJGPP is still OK for DOS work. Lots of stuff
that only kinda sorta works in DJGPP works splendidly in MingW32.

In the new SNIPPETS, the only compilers I use for compatibility testing on
PC's are MingW32 and the Digital Mars compiler. The rationale is simple:
MingW32 is an excellent gcc/g++ port, and DMC is almost 100% compatible
with MS(V)C/C++, and both are free!
