The usual reason for this is an insufficient stack available to the 
compiler.  The crash traceback shows which program (cc1.exe in your case)
crashes; you should stubedit that program and enlarge its stack size.  
The DJGPP FAQ list has the details in section 6.4.

You should NEVER remove anything from the crash traceback you post.  It 
includes crucial information about the cause(s) of the problem, and 
since you don't know why does it crash, you cannot possibly know what 
parts of the info are relevant.  Chances are, you will remove the most 
important parts.
