The line above should suffice, however, I recommend you double check 
this in a DOS prompt issuing the command PATH.

Sometimes other env changes are applied to the machine.

If D:\DJGPP\BIN appears as the first, the check the existence in the 
right place of one of the fileutils, they normally respond well to the 
--help switch, whereas the Windows ones don't, example:

C:\>find --help
Usage: d:/djgpp/bin/find.exe [path...] [expression]
default path is the current directory; default expression is -print
expression may consist of:
operators (decreasing precedence; -and is implicit where no others are 
given):
       ( EXPR ) ! EXPR -not EXPR EXPR1 -a EXPR2 EXPR1 -and EXPR2

       EXPR1 -o EXPR2 EXPR1 -or EXPR2 EXPR1 , EXPR2
options (always true): -daystart -depth -follow --help
       -maxdepth LEVELS -mindepth LEVELS -mount -noleaf --version -xdev
tests (N can be +N or -N or N): -amin N -anewer FILE -atime N -cmin N

       -cnewer FILE -ctime N -empty -false -fstype TYPE -gid N -group NAME
       -ilname PATTERN -iname PATTERN -inum N -ipath PATTERN -iregex PATTERN
       -links N -lname PATTERN -mmin N -mtime N -name PATTERN -newer FILE

       -nouser -nogroup -path PATTERN -perm [+-]MODE -regex PATTERN
       -size N[bckw] -true -type [bcdpfls] -uid N -used N -user NAME
       -xtype [bcdpfls]

actions: -exec COMMAND ; -fprint FILE -fprint0 FILE -fprintf FILE FORMAT
       -ok COMMAND ; -print -print0 -printf FORMAT -prune -ls


Report bugs to <bug-findutils AT gnu DOT org>.

NOW a caveat:

mkdir is an internal command and to _really_ have the gnu fileutil you 
have to call it by the name:

C:\>mkdir.exe etc. etc...
