I have some example source code which uses
register int index;
DJGPP has no problem compiling this.

Yet when I change 
int d;

to

register int d;

DJGPP gives the error "register name not specified for 'd'

The example source seems use the 'index' just like I'm using 'd',for a
faster for loop.
for (d=0 ; d<dn ; d++) {
...
}

So why doesn't DJGPP let me change an int variable to a register int
variable??
