It doesn't matter as long as you point the DJGPP environment variable
to the right place.

Also, for the purposes of finding the problem, please try to be
consistent, as it makes things easier.

Then I'd suspect a problem with free handles.  Please read section 9.7
of the DJGPP FAQ list and try to enlarge the number of handles using
the methods suggested there.  Then see if that makes your problem go
away.
