Section 9.5 of the DJGPP FAQ list covers this.

This is a known bug in the current version of the stub (that's the short 
DOS program prepended to every DJGPP program so DOS will know how to run 
it).  It pops up when your PATH is empty.  Set your PATH to any directory 
and the problem will go away.

The next DJGPP release corrects this.
