That is why it does not work - the linker replacement that comes with RSX
is THE thing you MUST replace - it is just that which makes it possibly to
create Windows programs using GCC. The fact that the original is newer is
immaterial - it is the NEWER DOS version, not  the "newer" RSX - Windows
capable one! I have gotten RSX myself and it runs fine - BTW I have two
"DJGPP" directories and dosboxmodes from W95 that I use - one for DOS DJGPP
coding and one for Windows DJGPP coding - i. e. I kept my original DJGPP
installation and created a second directory for RSXNTDJGPP. This might work
for you too if you are afraid of stuffing up you original DJGPP install.
