DJGPP doesn't support (or even define) SIGCHLD and SIGCLD.

I'm not sure why would you need to simulate these.  AFAIK, they are
used to signal that a child subprocess that was run asynchronously has
exited.  Since in DJGPP all subprocesses are synchronous, you
shouldn't need this facility.

Maybe if you explain the setup where you need these signals, you could
get more meaningful replies.
