Hello,
I got the sources & compiled them. When I run 
"zippo --initdb --root c:/djgpp" zippo threw out 
"access denied" error. It was caused by bug in recursive_mkdir():
if pathname has drive letter, at first it tries to create "c:" 
directory. I fixed that bug, also rewrote expression
*p = '\0', ret = mkdir(buf, mode), *p = '/';
to use ";" instead of ",", because GCC could reorder that
expression as it likes and that would result in a big bug.

Also I added S_IWUSR to mkdir()'s modes which I found because
according to DJGPP docs without that flag mkdir() creates
read-only directories.

Last note - in docs you mentioned that configure script
not always finds GCC. You seem to be using autoconf 2.12,
I suggest to update to 2.13 and the problem should vanish.
Also I added AC_PROG_CC call to configure.in.

Bye,
Laurynas Biveinis
