I think I know why.  Pierre has SHELL set to an explicit value
(D:/DJGPP/BIN/sh.exe) for some reason, perhaps because he invoked Make
from Bash or from Emacs.  In contrast, when you run Make, it uses
/dev/env/DJDIR/bin/sh.exe.  The latter compares equal to the value of
SHELL as set by the configure script, and everything works.  In
Pierre's case, these two strings don't compare equal, and libtool gets
confused.

Pierre, can you try the following command and tell me if it works for
you?

   make install prefix=${DJDIR} INSTALL='ginstall -c'
