The problem is that the script is looking for the file named `gcc', 
whereas you have `gcc.exe'.

Edit the configure script and replace each instance of "test -f" with 
"test -x".  Then it will work.  This is the easiest hack for one-time 
builds.  For some more complex solutions see the source distributions of 
DJGPP ports in the v2gnu directory on DJGPP sites.
