Try using DXE, DLM or DLX to do that.  The DJGPP FAQ (v2/faq211b.zip
points to the latter two in section 22.3, while the former is part of
the standard DJGPP development distribuition djdev201.zip.

No easy ways ;-).  You can't.

You will need to distribute more than that, and since most of these
are GNU software, you will need to distribute their sources as well.
It is much easier to tell people where to get the DJGPP distributions
on the net, since the DJGPP archives include sources (in a separate
zip file) for those who want them.

You cannot have a smaller compiler unless you write it.
