Instead of reinventing the wheel, it might be better to build on work 
done by others.  I suggest to download the gcc 2.8.0 source distribution 
from the usual DJGPP archives and to read the DJGPP-specific README file 
there.  It should explain everything you need to know.  Then I suggest to 
copy any DJGPP-specific patches that were left out of 2.8.1 from the 
2.8.0 sources, and then try building the package using the procedure 
outlined in the above-mentioned README file.
