 There are some attempts on implementation of DLL for djgpp.
 There are at least one working lib created by Malcom Taylor and DJ 
Delorie. However it is just a template, a base from which you can
start developing your own one.
At present, there is a project of developing a DLM (Dynamic Link
Modules) library. Information can be found at
http://spy.isp.nsc.ru/djgpp/dlm.htm
and the history of the project (and information about various DLL libs)
is at http://spy.isp.nsc.ru/djgpp/dlmhist.htm

If you still want to develop another one - focus on studiing COFF
structures, symbol manipulations and run-time fixup.
