The DJGPP FAQ list (v2/faq202b.zip from the same place you get DJGPP) has 
some advice on how to convert these in Chapter 18.  `farmalloc' should be 
just #defined to `malloc', `movemem' to `memmove', `peek' and `peekb' to 
`_farpeekw' and `_farpeekb'.

<alloc.h> is Borland-specific.  Whoever put it there didn't think a bit 
about portability.  Just ifdef it away; you don't need it in DJGPP.
