This link indicates Win2k and WinXP support were added to v2.04 (beta):
http://homepages.nildram.co.uk/~phekda/richdawe/djgpp/2.04/status204.html

The v2.04 beta can be found here:
http://www.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2/

or here:
ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2/

I'm not sure if there is a way to get to them through the ZIP picker...
