I solved the problem by only putting C:\EMX;C:\EMX\BIN in the 
PATH statement...

However, I ran into other problems when trying to compile/link an OS/2
Presentation Manager executable.

This was forgotten for those that want 
to make a Presentation Manager executable:
    set INCLUDE=C:\EMX\INCLUDE;C:\EMX\INCLUDE\CPP
Also:
    set TEMP=C:\TEMP
This was not in the docs above. (that I know of...)  :(
It allows the OS/2 RC (resource compiler) to be able to find the OS2.H
header files.  This drove me insane for awhile...
Also, when running RC, use these two switches:
  -i    This switch let's RC use the INCLUDE path in the CONFIG.SYS
  -r    This switch is used by RC to tell it to make a binary .RES file
        which can be linked in later.
Example:
  c:
  cd\emx\test
  rc -i -r pm2.rc
  gcc -o test.exe test.def test.res -Zomf

The above will produce a OS/2 Presentation Manager program; it, however,
uses the EMXxxx.DLLs.

 emxinst
This creates a folder containing icons for EMX on-line books
  cd\emx\lib
  omflibs        
This builds the *.lib files.

The other two are not necessary.  Unless you have a problem with HPFS or FAT.

BTW, I was so excited about finally being about to create a PM executable,
that I couldn't help replying to this message in this mannger.  So, excuse
me...  :>
