I can't say I'm happy with this change.  It could easily cause subtle 
problems for those who don't follow instructions.  It also means removing 
these lines from djgpp.env in the next DJGPP release means we could break
Bison for people who don't upgrade Bison when they download djdev204.zip.

Why was this change necessary?
