Hi,

   I am trying to use DJGPP C compiler and newlib for an embedded 386
project with DOS as my development environment. I have created stubs for
the different system calls as described in the docs. I have several
questions regarding this:

1. The docs talk about a reentrancy structure. Who initializes the
reentrancy structure and the impure_ptr ?. Should my C startup
initialize this.

2. If my application is single threaded can I build newlib without
worrying about reentrancy.

3. Is there a list of defines for the compiler and their purpose ?. This
will help in writing my own makefiles.

Thanks for your responses
