You need to download and install the maintenance releases.  This is
explained in the FAQ list (available as FAQ101.ZIP from the same
place you got DJGPP), in Section 6.1:

6.1   Q: I've just got the latest version of DJGPP from my nearest SimTel
         mirror, installed it exactly as described by the various README
         files, but whenever I try to compile a program, I get the
         message: ``This program requires a version of go32 (1.12maint3)
         newer than this one)''.  But I just got the LATEST version of
         everything!  Why would they include this out-of-date version with
         the latest package??
      A: You didn't install the maintenance releases.  These fix bugs in
         some of the DJGPP utilities, and from time to time the go32 DOS
         extender gets upgraded, too.  Programs which were compiled under
         these fixed versions of go32 will insist to be run under go32 at
         least that new.  You should get all the files named djXXXmY.zip
         and install these maintenance releases, as described in Sections
         3.7 and 3.8 above.
