At least I don't know of any plans regarding porting those programs,
probably because nobody needs them. I would like to encourage you to
try it yourself, it is very educating! If you come across things you
can't solve, just ask here.

BTW, it really helps in porting if you have GNU Bash, Autoconf,
FileUtils and ShellUtils for DJGPP.
