IIRC the only place that uses the ix86-pc-msdosdjgpp is in the patch file that Robert put together for binutils. I don't think if you get the latest binutils source from pub/GNU that it includes those changes yet. So, I think we would probably be safe to change to something more generic as suggested above, but we just need to make sure that binutils, gcc, and egcs all match. Its not even too much trouble on unix, you just have to know to symlink the directories togother, and then symlink a couple of the bin files.
