DevStudio's Tools menu is configurable.  You can add the DJGPP compiler
as a "Tool" by specifying the command line.  When you invoke the tool,
the command line is called for the currently edited file and any
stdout/strerr is redirected to the Output window.

You cannot use the gdb debugger this way, though.
