Q: I've downloaded pgcc but it doesn't work.  For instance, there are no header files.
Where can I get these?

A: See the readme.  You must have previously installed DJGPP before attempting 
to install PGCC.  

Q: Why is the C++ package older than the C package?  When is the next C++ package
coming out?

A: I am not a C++ user.  I originally started making these snapshots because 
I wanted a pentium C compiler and none were available.  I make the C++ snapshots
as time permits, and sometimes skip releases.  Also, C++ has had more problems 
(the parser was broken for most of summer 1997), and the library configure
routines were broken too.

Q: Can you build a Pentium G77?  Or a Pentium Objective C? 
Or a Pentium ADA?  Or a Pentium (some other language I don't program in)

A: Possibly.  But I'm not going to.  I don't have the time or disk space to 
do this.  There are few people who request these too.  Fortran may be completely
broken for building cross-compilers (as I do).

Q: My code runs slower now!?!

A: Try experimenting with the various options and enable and disable them individually.
Some (like -frisc), try an 80/20 approach.  I makes a decision knowing that 
it will be faster 80% of the time and slower 20% of the time.  Unfortunately, it
doesn't know which it will be.  

Q: My code is bigger now!?!

A: Try -fno-exceptions.  


Q: When is the next snapshot coming out?

A: I don't know.  They take a while to put together and I have to 
do them at work so it also depends on my work schedule.

Q: How stable is pgcc?

A: Right now (v1.0.1) its pretty good.  I usually only get one 
or two real problems reported per month, and most are config
problems, not code generation problems.  Some versions of 
c++ have gone out broken because c++ was broken in the underlying 
gcc or egcs snapshot.  I expect it to remain stable for a while.  

Q: Can I build pgcc myself from source?

A: I am not sure if building it natively works.  I only have 
access to a Windows NT machine (no LFN support) so I do not
build from a DJGPP environment.  If you have access to a unix machine
then you should be able to bootstrap a compiler as I do.  You should
always ask me before doing this because sometimes I have necessary 
patches in my source code that has not gotten into PGCC and egcs yet.


Q: PGCC Crashes when compiling a really big file, fix it?

A: Try increasing the stack size.  If I've done things properly 
it should be set to 4MB, but I have forgotten on occasion (like the v1.0 release).
Also, some programs may need more stack space than 4MB.  Change directories
to $(DJDIR)/bin, and run 'stubedit' on cc1.exe (c++ use cc1plus.exe).
