Feel free to suggest additions, if you find that they speed up
configure.

Usually, this happens because no one works with the upstream
developers on DJGPP support.  Most of them will happily keep DJGPP if
there's a DJGPP maintainer.  When there isn't one, they drop DJGPP as
an obsolete unsupported platform.

It almost happened with Emacs.
