There is a substantial difference.  First, your MASM must be generating
32-bit, flat address model code to even have a chance to work with
DJGPP.  Then I believe you have to use a conversion program to
fix the formatting.  COFF is not a universal standard; each compiler
does things anywhere from slightly to totally differently.  Look in the
FAQ (faq201b.zip) for some hints.
