Many virus scanners think the stub *is* a virus, because it does
virus-like things.  Check with other virus scanners, and if none of
them show a virus, and Inoculan shows all DJGPP programs are a virus
but no other programs are, then I'd say Inoculan is broken.  Have you
tried contacting them?

Can you still *run* those djgpp programs?  The stub won't run a
virus-infected coff image.
