No, it's supposed to be a runtime thing so that a gcc built on NT will still
work on 98.

I'm grasping at straws, really, but usually when there are problems with gcc on
Windows 98, it's been due to mmap issues.  At least that has been the case
recently.

Has anyone tried this --with-gc=simple on 98 just to see if this all a
mad delusion on my part?
