Official distribution point is on omnigate.clarkson.edu in pub/msdos/djgpp
 
Faster sites at simtel20 et al in pd1:<msdod.djgpp> (see comp.archive.msdos[.d]
for more info on simtel20), as well as ftp.math.niu.edu (can't remember dir,
but easy to find... just do the logical cd's)
 
version is based on gcc 2.2.2 (later versions broke the 8.3 filename thing
pretty bad, and noone has attacked it yet).  Then again, I recently switched
to os/2, and may be slightly out of touch in this aspect.
 
suggestion: be sure you read all the readme files before you start ftp-ing 
everything!!!
