The "cpp" is a give-away.  DJGPP, when installed correctly, lists
something like c:/djgpp/bin/cpp.exe.  What's probably happening is
that you didn't set the DJGPP environment variable (or set it
incorrectly), and gcc is relying on the PATH to find its subprograms,
and you have a copy of Borland C installed on your PATH.  Once gcc is
running, the DPMI server is in 32-bit mode, and it can't run Borland's
16-bit CPP program, which also uses DPMI.
