Nevermind..you could explain this like:

toplevel Makefile passes CONFIG_SITE=no-such-file
causing nested configure to skip /djgpp/share/config.site
therefore missing ac_executable_extensions=".exe"
therefore looking for "grep" but not "grep.exe"

OR you could explain it like:

gccs2.zip contains djconfig.sh which works around this otherwise via:

export TEST_FINDS_EXE=Y

and other content therein probably fixes the nm/as vs. nm.exe/as.exe problem, specifically:

export AS=as.exe
export LD=ld.exe
export NM=nm.exe

any deviation from djconfig.sh, and its neighbors, probably subject to not working.
