I had problems with ./djmake.sh  install-driver  (last target for 
make install) without using exeext for 2.8.1 (I didn't try to build 2.8.0 
at all). Therefore I added it  in configure.in (definitions for 
i[345678]86-pc-msdossjgpp target) After that I run autoconf and autoheader 
of course. After that ./djmake.sh install works Ok for me, but this was 
for 2.8.1

There were no need for exeext for '.\djmake.sh all' only for make install.
