Thanks, must have missed that...

now I get

bash-2.04$ configure
Configuring for a i386-pc-msdosdjgpp host.
./configure: touch: command not found
./move-if-change: mv: command not found
*** cannot find move-if-change.

Arrg... sorry, but I must say even for a free package DJGPP is poorly put
together.  At least with a typical linux distribution all the tools I need
are included...

There should be a "really big current zip file" of all the DJGPP tools you
would ever need [related to GCC like they do for linux].  Instead of hosting
3 million copies of sed, binutils, etc... sorry to say 99% of all users will
want the current stuff and only get older stuff in odd situations.
