I think DJGPP cannot be compiled with MSVC at all, only with a previous 
version of DJGPP.  The instructions that you quote seem to be related to 
compiling GCC as a native Win32 application on NT, while DJGPP is an 
entirely different beast (a 32-bit DOS-extended program).  I think this 
inconsistency is the source of your grief.

If I'm correct, then you need to post to another news group, like 
gnu.gcc.help.  If there are any news groups or mailing lists related to 
the Cygnus port of GCC to Win32, you should post there (sorry, I don't 
know anything about that).
