Way back then, it was djdev that contained the specs file.  This
caused problems with gcc updates, so we stopped doing that.  Older
gcc's won't work as well with newer djdev's as newer gcc's with newer
djdevs, or as older gcc's with older djdev's.  We try to maintain
enough compatibility to allow people time to upgrade, but 2.7.2.1 is
quiet old.
