Seems you are hiting a limitation in command.com. You can:

1) Use response files. Just put the parameters in a file and call gcc like 
this: gcc @file
2) Use make, I think you need at least make for a 20 files project.
3) Use RHIDE, it will help you a lot to manage the project.

If you are already using 2 or 3 then you are mixing utilities from djgpp v2.0 
and v2.01, just reinstall all with 2.01.
