Sounds like the 'empty path' bug of djgpp 2.00. Try rebuilding bash
with 2.01 and see what happens.
The only problem I can think of is how bash is going to find djgpp.env
and know to load it. This may require a special environment file loader
(I think Charles Sandman's tsr sample shows how to specifiy your own).
I don't realy know about the above as I haven't realy used bash yet.
