Please add -v to the gcc switches and see at which stage is that message 
printed.  The most probably reason is that one of the programs invoked by 
GCC (cc1, cc1plus, as, ld or stubify) is an old program compiled with 
DJGPP v1.x.  GCC detects this and tries to invoke that program via 
go32.exe, but doesn't find go32.exe on your PATH.  Once you find that old 
program, replace it with one that is compiled with v2.

Or maybe an older version of one of the programs GCC needs is on the PATH
before the DJGPP bin subdirectory, so GCC tries to use it instead of the
correct one.  Changing the order of the directories on your PATH or 
removing that old program will solve this.

If the above doesn't help you solve the problem, post everything GCC 
prints when you add the -v switch to your command line.
