The DJGPP FAQ list (faq102.zip from the same place you get DJGPP) says in 
section 17.4 that DJGPP linker doesn't understand the .lib and .obj 
formats used by Watcom and other DOS-based compilers.

An OBJ to COFF converter was uploaded to x2ftp archive, you can get the 
info about it at this URL:

I don't know if it can handle Watcom object files.  If you try it, please 
post a summary of your experience so it could be included in the next 
version of the FAQ list.
