Is there a way to use DJGPP libs developed for older versions of DJGPP
(1.x) with new DJGPP without getting these 'could not read symbols:
virtual memory exhausted' error. I heard that was a known bug, but is
there a way to get around it without recompiling the source in 2.x?
Another annoying thing: I thought that -l bug was fixed in ld (I am
using ld to bypass libc.a. But when I provide -lpatch, it says that file
-lpatch is not found and doesn't even look for libpatch.a. I also
provide my own stub and do a few other weird things to get access to
things like Windows GUI)
