From your nearest SimTel.NET mirror.  The list of mirrors in the 
UK is attached at the end of this message.

The latest version is still v2.01, but if you want a better library, I 
suggest to download a patched libc from Tom Demmer's site 
ftp://ftp.lstm.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/pub/djgpp/patches/ (there's a README 
there).
