Well, I looked what it is and found there (after downloading rpm of
course):
	DJGPP-2.01
	gcc-2.7.2.1
	binutils-2.7

So this RPM is terribly outdated. I could build similar package (Slackware
one, not RedHat) with DJGPP-2.03, binutils-2.9.1, gcc-2.95.2

However I should still resolve one problem with cross-compiler
(gcc-2.95.2) I only detected when tried to build native compiler for DJGPP
under Linux (So it's even possible that next update of gcc for DJGPP will
be built under Linux ...)
