This is explained in the DJGPP FAQ list (available as faq102.zip from
the same place you get DJGPP), section 6.1:
6.1 Q: I've just got the latest version of DJGPP from my nearest SimTel
mirror, installed it exactly as described by the various README
files, but whenever I try to compile a program, I get the
message: ``This program requires a version of go32 (1.12maint3)
newer than this one)''. But I just got the LATEST version of
everything! Why would they include this out-of-date version with
the latest package??
A: You didn't install the maintenance releases. These fix bugs in
some of the DJGPP utilities, and from time to time the go32 DOS
extender gets upgraded, too. Programs which were compiled under
these fixed versions of go32 will insist to be run under go32 at
least that new. You should get all the files named djXXXmY.zip
and install these maintenance releases, as described in Sections
3.7 and 3.8 above.
