DJGPP does not have segments and offsets in the traditional sense.  In
any program that uses FP_SEG and FP_OFF, you *must* rewrite that part
of the code completely, so that it copies data to/from DOS memory and
uses DPMI services to invoke the interrupts.  You can't do a simple
port for them, sorry.
