If the last line is an exact copy of what your system prints, then the 
extra space between DJGPP and the `=' is the source of your trouble.  It 
makes the space part of the variable name, so that DJGPP doesn't find the 
variable named `DJGPP' (without a space).

This is a very small amount of memory.  As you seem to work under 
Windows, you should use the PIF editor to increase the amount of memory 
Windows lets DOS programs use (set the minimum amount of EMS and XMS 
memory to 4MB, and maximum to -1).
