	Thank you very much the reply. I tried my exe-file at home in the
dosbox of Win95 and there the program runs without trouble and the produced
gmon.out also contains timings different from zero. So NT really seems to be
reason of the crashes.  But as a djgpp first time user  I assumed of course
that it could be my fault ...
