I have a question about the various gcc compilers around.

I currently have a version of the compiler for each of the following
systems; MS_DOS 5.0, SunOS 4.1.1 and NetBSD 0.8. (I'm really not sure which
versions of gcc exist on each system, they must be fairly recent as I
downloaded the PC versions only a few months ago.)

The SUN is a SPARCstation1 and the other 21 systems are running on a 386
25 MHz DX.

After all that preamble, here is my question :

I have written some code on which my Ph.D. thesis is based.

I developed the code on the SPARCstation1 and it apperas to work fine.
I down loaded the same code (unchanged) to the PC and it did not run under
DOS properly.  I down loaded the same code to the NetBSD side of the PC and
after declaring some variables ``static'', the programme ran as it did on
the SPARCstation.

Any ideas why the programme would not run properly under MS-DOS ?
Should I bother getting the newest version of gcc for MS-DOS ?

Any comments would be appreciated.

Matt
