Don't count on either. Ideally, the official GNU distribution should
support DJGPP right out of the box, but not all of them do (actually,
most don't), so the DJGPP-specific files aren't there. The DJGPP source
distributions sometimes omit files which aren't required for a DJGPP
build (to conserve disk space).
So if you need a DJGPP build, get the DJGPP sources; if you need to build
on Unix, get the original GNU distribution.
