Possibly it wants to make sure to have no files from older versions 
before installing new ones?

Now I did it like you said with the following result whereas the line 
123 is the one with the del bgi\*.o command.

C:\DJGPP\contrib\grx245>make -f makefile.dj2 libs
c:/djgpp/bin/make.exe -C src -f makefile.dj2
make.exe[1]: Entering directory `c:/DJGPP/contrib/grx245/src'
makefile.dj2:123: *** missing separator.  Stop.
make.exe[1]: Leaving directory `c:/DJGPP/contrib/grx245/src'
make.exe: *** [libs] Error 2

Thanks a lot for your patience.

Monika

PS. I deleted the shell environment variable.
