win95 build

[Douglas Steele]

Hi,

win95b, cygnus b20 with/without Mumit Khan's fixes, also tried ecgs.
Octave-2.0.16

./configure works fine

make fails after some time, varies according to which version of
installation, eg egcs fails at /liboctave/CMatrix.cc

In all cases failure due to generation of a General Protection Fault.
Error message gives Make as source of error.  Have tried two different
versions of make without success.

I see in cygnus 1.0 faq, cygnus not recommended for Win 95 because
freeze after average of 1/2 hour (which is probably about how far into
build I tend to get).

1) could this be cygnus/win95 bug, or anything I could fix ?
2) I suppose djgpp wouldn't work ?

Thanks for any help
