I downloaded the latest DJGPP zip files from the DJGPP website and
unzip the files with unzip32.exe and follow ALL instructions in the
readme.1st file. However, I am still getting the same problem. So I
don't think my packages are outdated. There's something wrong with the
package themselves.

Your feed back is welcome.
