GNAT in its last incarnation still uses an earlier version of the DJGPP
environment which should not mixed with the present version of DJGPP to
avoid obscure bugs.

cyg-win32 is a port of the GNU tools for the Win32 environment, so it would
not make a substitute for DJGPP which may be run in plain DOS (w/help of a
DPMI server, which is available w/DJGPP however).

So the _at the moment_ you'll have to live w/this multitude of
installations. When a volunteer upgrades GNAT for DJGPP to ver 2.10 (the
present ver) then you could merge GNAT and DJGPP installations w/o trouble.
(this is my present setup as well btw).
