Since it's something specific to MS-DOS, you'll be far better off posting 
to comp.os.msdos.djgpp (or write to djgpp@delorie.com if you don't have 
access to Usenet news).

One thing to check is the length of the command line you use in the link 
stage.  If it's longer than about 20 screen lines, you might have 
problems.  If you use `*.o' to make it short, but the list of names of 
all .o files is longer than 20 screen lines when expanded, it can be a 
problem, too.

If none of the above helps, please post to the DJGPP group the version of 
DJGPP you are using and the command line whcih fails.
