Something didn't run for me immediatelly when I tried to use
Makefile.dos etc. Then I simply copied scripts djconfig.sh and
djmake.sh from sources of port of gcc-2.8.1, slightly editted them
and there were no more problem to use configure scripts without
any more altering.
I built make-3.76.94 at first with djdev202 (980726) and after that
with djdev201 to make sure the problem is not caused by alpha
of libc.a and found there is no difference.

As I said there were no changes except 2 small additional shell
scripts. I can send them to You.
