This happened to me when I first got GCC, the problem is that you have not set
your enviroment variables correctly. The vital ones are:

GNULIB		The location of the library ( .olb ) files.
GNUINC		The location of the include ( .h ) files
GCCEXEC		The location of the GCC executables

The one that is causing your problems is GCCEXEC, this does not fit the pattern
of the other variables so can easily cause grief ( I almost abandoned GCC when
I had the same problems as you ). It MUST end with a backslash while for the
others this is optional, alse note that it is GCCEXEC not GNUEXEC. The GCC
program should call the various compiler programs using their full names (check
using the -verbose flag), if it does not then look at your GCCEXEC variable.

P.S. GCC is indeed the best thing since sliced bread.
