Why?  DJGPP already comes with a compiled GCC binary, so why do you need 
to recompile it yourself?

Install these and you should be all set:

	mak375b.zip
	fil313b.zip
	shl112b.zip
	grep20b.zip
	sed118b.zip
	find41b.zip
	diff271b.zip
	txt122b.zip
	txi390b.zip

and of course djdev201.zip, gcc2721b.zip and bnu27b.zip (without which 
you won't be able to compile at all).

All of the above are in the v2gnu directory on DJGPP sites.

There should be CONFIG.BAT and/or MAKE.BAT in the gcc source 
distribution; these are what you need to invoke.  If you have problems, 
post here.

But I think you don't need to recompile gcc at all.  Everything is 
already built for you, just use the binary packages (those which end with 
a `b').
