To put it lightly, RSXNTDJ is un unmaintaned joke. If Rainer (the author)
would just release a new version that fixes the problems that he
inadvertantly created, then all would be well with the world.

I know that sounds cold, but that's the way it is. You can't release a
package into the public arena and expect people to work things out for them
selfs, it needs to be tech-supported and revised. Rainer should take the
feedback on this newsgroup as a hint.

The reason it's still suggested in the zip picker is a) nobody has bothered
changeing it and b) the other compilers (mingw32 and cygwin) aren't related
to DJGPP, whereas RSXNTDJ is (supposed to be) a DJGPP add-on.
