I have installed the GNU toolkit onto my PC and am unable to compile even
the basic demo program.  The error message that is received is as follows:

################################

C:\Program Files\hitachi\GNU\DEMO>make

The hello.c file is as follows:


################################

void __main(){}

void exit()
{
    while(1);
}

main()
{
    return 0;
}

################################

I am running MS Windows 98 and the version of the GCC.EXE is 2.7-97r1a.

I have tried runing the command "gcc hello.c" with just the default
settings, changing the FILES in the CONFIG.SYS file, tried different folder
locations (to prevent any DOS 8.3 problems) all returning the same STACK
FAULT error.

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance,

Stef
