I didn't use linker scripts generated when building binutils-2.9.1 (and
also later development snapshots). With djgpp.djl (from current CVS
version of DJGPP) all worked Ok for me and I didn't want to change more
than I need.

I built Allegro-3.12 with gcc-2.95.1, almost current binutils snapshot and
also almost current CVS version of DJGPP and all worked Ok. No crashes.
