I recommend v2.03; this is what I used to port it, and this is how the
source distribution is configured.

In principle, you should be able to reconfigure it for any other
version of DJGPP (see the file djgpp/README for instructions).
However, v2.01 had a bug in the library whereby the function `tmpfile'
did not open the file in binary mode, while this port relies on binary
I/O from/to temporary files.

I suggest to upgrade to v2.03 for any number of reasons.  But if you
cannot, you could simply use the precompiled binaries.
