I was not very correct. Real reason of infinite loop is missing definition
of  %DJDIR% which SHOULD be defined in DJGPP.ENV. So if You have 
corrupt DJGPP.ENV or %DJGPP% is not pointing correctly to this file
then the result will be this problem

This shows You have some problem with DJGPP instalation. I can suggest to
read documentation of DJGPP (including DJGPP FAQ) how to install it.
Other possibility is to try package djverify written by John Aldrich 
(http://www.cs.com/fighteer/files/vrfy04a.zip.). But please consider that
this utility is still in testing stage.

Perhaps I'll upload new version of gcc-2.8.1 after some time which will
have fixes for this (and also other) problems (at least issuing fatal error 
message)
