Is there a better explanation for this than 'install egcs-1.1.2'?  egcs 1.1.2

unfortunately not. AFAIK, nobody has ever managed to compile a
dll-capable legOS with gcc-2.95.x, neither with the rcx-compiler patch
nor without.

This is definitely a different symptom.  If you run dll -v you can see that the
RCX hangs immediately after "delete program" and never responds.

Sure, this is exactly the gcc-2.95.2 symptom many people already
experienced. There has been some discussion about this issue, and
hopefully someday someone with deeper insights of gcc will solve this
issue.
