The thread is "gcc-3.0.1 and Win2k" from August 2001. Here's the key from a
reply by Eli to a question by Andris:

I don't think so: that could mean a chicken-and-egg problem.  For
example, the script in the djlsr distribution might not work with the
version of GCC used to build the library.

Also, the above requires a pwd command, which might not be installed.
We are trying to avoid requesting any additional packages beyond the
absolute minimum.

I think the best way is to use the script which comes with the
compiler used to compile the library: it's guaranteed to work (if it
doesn't, they don't have a working installation)."

Fair enough. So, I'd like to commit the patch. I've included it again below.

Thanks, bye, Rich =]
