It's not so huge, really. And since anybody who would like to recompile
it will need to download and unzip the sources, you are not at any
disadvantage here...
I have never looked inside the WMEMU sources, but it seems unlikely that
it would need the *entire* library source tree. Maybe by looking under
the hood you will be able to see just what source files does it need and
then download them alone from http://www.delorie.com/dl/ofc/.

Because DJGPP is developed by volunteers on their free time, and nobody
has yet found the time and motivation to do that. Usually, the person
who needs something done is the best candidate for doing it (hint, hint ;-).

I don't think anybody has touched it since then. FPU-less machines are
so rare these days...
