These things are rather broken. Some days ago related fixes were done
in gcc source tree (current only, not in gcc-2.95 branch). So perhaps 
now we have too possibilities:
	1) simply build for i386-pc-msdosdjgpp and leave this topic for
            next version
       2) backport related changes to gcc-2.95.1 (currently patches fails) 

In current version options -m386, -m486, ... also are rather broken (try 
generating assembler source with -m386, -m486, ... and with -
mcpu=i386, -mcpu=i486, ... and compare results)
