Read the DJGPP Frequently Asked Questions list (v2/faq202b.zip from
SimTel), section 6.7.

You have another version of one of the DJGPP programs in your PATH, like
'make.exe' from a Borland installation.  You must put the DJGPP bin
directory in your PATH before the directories of any other compilers.
