You need to download and install the GNU Pascal compiler, GPC.
Please get v2gnu/egcs/gpce112b.zip from your favourite DJGPP
mirror.

Anyway I recommend to invoke the Pascal compiler through `gpc'
and not `gcc' because it can handle some special features of
Pascal such as automatic `make'.

Hope this helps,
