How to get DJGPP 1.10 to work under Windows?

The latest version of DJGPP supports Windows with DPMI for memory management.
However, when I try to use GCC 2.5.3 or other GCC compiled programs from
a DOS shell under Windows, I am getting error messages like:

	DPMI memory exhausted (0x00430000 bytes)

and the program aborts.
I ran DPMIFIX on these programs, but this does not cure the problem.
The DOS session is allocated 1024 K EMS memory and 1024 K XMS memory.
Using the PIF-editor to increase these values does not help.
My system is a 486DX/33 with 8 MB of memory.

Does anyone have the same problems ? Is there a way to increase the 
memory available to DPMI ?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
