They should be in rts/gstrings.pas, and go into libgpc.a when
compiling GPC.

Which beta version exactly did you get, and are you sure you use
only files of the same version together (and not perhaps
unintentionally a previously installed libgpc.a)? This might apply
especially if you're using DJGPP where AFAIK there was a directory
restructuring recently.

When in doubt, you might want to remove all instances of libgpc.a
and install again.
