my base directory also is d:\djgpp. i never used groff but the programs
from the TeX package do use DJDIR to compute the default paths (at least
on my system) because i never had to set any other environemnt variables
than

+TEXMF=%DJDIR%/share/texmf
+TEXMFCNF=.;$SELFAUTODIR/share/texmf/web2c;%DJDIR%/share/texmf/web2c

as eli mentions in the readme for TeX.
