If you have problems with a maintainer of a GNU package not accepting patches to support DJGPP, please let me know PRIVATELY. Stallman doesn't like maintainers that don't act to further the GNU manifesto, and supporting popular gnu-based platforms like DJGPP certainly does. However, that doesn't mean that there aren't VALID reasons for not supporting DJGPP.
