emx gcc (under DOS) tells me "WARNING: emx 0.9b or later required"
when I compile it and again as the first line of the EXE's output. 
emxrt.doc tells me that this means that I have an out-of-date version
of emx.dll, but all the DLLs that came with it look pretty recent, and
I don't have any other versions that were already on my hard disk:

GPPDEMID DLL        17,563 11-28-95  11:58a
EMXWRAP  DLL        17,534 12-10-95   4:17p
EMXLIBCM DLL       111,824 12-10-95   4:19p
EMXLIBCS DLL       110,210 12-10-95   4:20p
EMXLIBC  DLL        14,335 12-10-95   4:20p
EMX      DLL        72,766 12-10-95   4:21p
EMXIO    DLL         3,578 12-10-95   4:21p

It seems odd that it would be zipped up and distributed with an
out-of-date DLL, especially if that DLL is barely two months old. Is
there something else I have set wrong? Or is there really a more
recent emx.dll somewhere that I can get? (I did try a couple of web
searches for it with no luck.) 

Other than the warning message being output with the EXE, a simple
"hello world" hello.c compiles and runs fine.

thanks,
