On 08 July 2012 I finished my 32-bit DOS build of Eddie Kohler's Gifsicle version 1.67 using DJGPP version 2.04 beta.

Binaries, user manuals in ASCII format, and fully configured sources plus some simple instructions on how to rebuild are available at http://www.bttr-software.de/ports/.

Changes from my last build (1.63) to 1.67:
* gifsicle: Frame specifications like "#2-0" are allowed; they insert frames in reverse order. Feature request from Leon Arnott.
* gifview: Add --min-delay option.
* gifsicle: Add -Okeep-empty for Gerald Johanson.
* gifsicle: Several users (Kornel Lesiński and others) reported "bugs" with Gifsicle-optimized images and Mac programs like Safari. The bug is in Safari, but add --careful to work around it.
* Improve -O3 a bit (although for some images, the new -O3 is bigger than the old).
* gifsicle: Add --resize-fit options. Tom Glenne request.
