Those are temporary files created by 'stubify.exe', I think.  That's
the program that turns the program image file created by the linker
into an executable runnable by DOS.

This points at some possible reasons:

1) Incompatible tool versions.  Make sure your djdev, gcc and binutils
   package versions are known to work together correctly.  If in doubt,
   report them here (send the actual contents of manifest/*.mft files),
   and/or the output of "dir manifest" from the DJGPP main directory.

2) Some security software running on your machine running amok.  If you
   have a virus scanner or other running on your machine, please test if
   you still get those orphan files while it's disabled.
