gcc Hardfile for WinUAE or similar. 

gcc version 3.4.0

This environment is especially good for compiling classic ncurses programs. 

There is a choice of "make" or "make.3_81".

You need to have the following in your "s:user-startup":-

; GG begin
assign >nil: exists MyGG_HD:
if not warn
   assign GG: MyGG_HD:
   Execute GG:Sys/S/GG-Startup
endif
; GG end



If you are using an ixemul lib version for your regular environment and
another version for your GG then you can do something along the lines of
the following:-

; GG begin
assign >nil: exists MyGG_HD:
if not warn
   if exists libs:ixemul.library
      rename libs:ixemul.library libs:ixemul.library.def
   endif
   if exists libs:ixemul.trace
      rename libs:ixemul.trace libs:ixemul.trace.def
   endif
   if exists libs:ixnet.library
      rename libs:ixnet.library libs:ixnet.library.def
   endif
   assign GG: MyGG_HD:
   Execute GG:Sys/S/GG-Startup
else
   if exists libs:ixemul.library.def
      rename libs:ixemul.library.def libs:ixemul.library
   endif
   if exists libs:ixemul.trace.def
      rename libs:ixemul.trace.def libs:ixemul.trace
   endif
   if exists libs:ixnet.library.def
      rename libs:ixnet.library.def libs:ixnet.library
   endif
endif
; GG end


A shell stack of 2000000 has been sufficient for me.
Consider placing a "Stack 2000000" in your s:Shell-Startup without
the quotes.
