Sometimes the library packages don't keep up with the main DJGPP distribution. After 2.01 was released there was a flurry of patches to libc so the djdev and libc packages, but not many others, were "quietly" updated. You could try comparing the dates inside your distribution zip files to see if this is worth a try.
