You are right that the standard DJGPP distribution does not produce
Win95-native code.  However, there exists a package called RSXNTDJ which
allows you to produce Win32 code with DJGPP.  From the latest collective
wisdom on the subject, the current version of RSXNTDJ has some slight
incompatibilities with DJGPP v2.01; namely that it replaces the default
linker script file with an older version.  Since numerous people here
have apparently solved the problem on their own, I'm sure they would be
glad to share their wisdom with you.

I'm not sure where the latest version of RSXNTDJ can be obtained; try
searching the mail archives of this list or waiting for somebody who
does know to respond.  :)
