Borland )

I'd guess that there's no such header file as `cgi-lib.h` but
there is one called `cgilib.h`. Since neither name is part of
the standard, it's an implementation-specific or installation-specific
or user-specific detail. You don't show the actual #include
line and we don't know if your compiler has interesting rules
mapping header names to file names.
