Yes, two ways:

1) Get the DJGPP source zip, cd src/stub, edit stub.asm, djasm it, and 
   use it as the stub.
2) Use a binary editor to change the string in the stub of the image you
   distribute - your desired string is shorter so can easily replace 
   the current string. You could write a quick C program to find/rewrite 
   this string in the image also.
