What's the problem?
Precompiled libs go into 
$DJGPP/lib/libfoo.a
Headers should be put either into
$DJGPP/include/
or
$DJGPP/include/foo/

The lib should be compiled with gcc 2.7.1, as this
is the current "official" version. 2.8 should only
be used if no complications happen with 2.7.1, so
that ought to be thoroughly tested.
