I tried again, first the smart way, then exactly from build.sh (well, I changed "g++" to "gpp"), and it still worked. And IIRC, there was a similar error from a much older ObjConv version that didn't work by default in DJGPP. So you're probably accidentally using that older version. Make sure it's dated Sep. 25 of this year.
