You don't need MK_FP in DJGPP, and peek/poke functions are in the library. 
From what you tell, you are probably writing a program that accesses
memory-mapped devices or absolute addresses.  If that is so, please get
the DJGPP FAQ list (v2/faq200b.zip from the same place you get DJGPP) and
read Chapter 18 (and maybe 17) there.  These things are done differently
in DJGPP because it's a protected-mode environment.

The library is documented in the Info file libc.inf that you can read 
with the stand-alone Info reader (info.exe from txi360b.zip).  If you use 
the right editor (like Emacs) that has a built-in Info reader, you can 
have the context-sensitive help feature.
