4.8.X does not even build with DJGPP v2.03v2 at least when I last checked.
Additionally C++ library would be seriously cripled relative to what is
supported for v204 development versions. So I do not think it worth
trying to fix build with v2.03v2.

Example random number support would be left out from libstdc++
as it relies on a more complete implementation of current C standard
as one from v2.03.

PS. Similarly gmp-5.1.X did not entirely build with DJGPP v2.03 due to
the same reason, so I released only  packages for /beta/
