All of the programs that you say don't work are non-DJGPP programs.
Is it correct that *every* DJGPP-compiled program works?

If that's true, then I would suspect the PATH variable.  Depending on
your setup, Bash might change it to e.g. forward slashes; it can even
change "C:\FOO\BAR" into "//c/foo/bar" which will probably confuse
many DOS programs.

So please post here the output of the command "set" when issued inside
Bash.  (Say "set > env.lst" and post the contents of env.lst.)
