The compare() member functions for std::string in GCC's C++ library
are non-standard.  This should be fixed in GCC 3.0, which is due out
by the end of the year.  STLport (http://www.stlport.org) would also
solve the problem - if you can get it to work with DJGPP.

The code that Stan Moore posted obviously won't work with most C++
compilers.
