	Please help. I had a program that used to compile perfectly. One time, I
went into it, changed the odd ++ to a -- (just to change graphical effects
and so on), and now when I compile it with the command line :-

	gcc -o -O3 %1.exe %1.c libsb.a -lalleg	 (which is actually a batch file,
hence the %1 bits)

	. . . .I get a million errors like this:-

	c:/djgpp/bin\ld.exe: bfd assertion fail coff-i386.c:368

	. . . . there are some other errors, but before I get to read them, the
screen fills up with errors such as that above, and adding '| more' to the
command line doesn't seem to work. However, if I lose the optimisation bit
and compile as :-

	gcc -o %1.exe %1.c libsb.a -lalleg

	. . . . I get no errors whatsoever. Can anyone help ?!??! Just for the
record, I use a P200 with 16MB Ram under Windows 95.
