I just took a look. Two possible points that may need additional
handling:

1) The section on Emacs may need at least one more option, like

    No Emacs at all
    Minimal Emacs (just enough to run it)
    Usable Emacs (i.e. no .el's, just the .elc's)
    Full Emacs (with .el's)
    Full Emacs with Sources (all of it)

  The current choice seems to offer only 'No Emacs' and 'Full Emacs with
  Sources'. Maybe Eli should have a look at this.

2) Selecting cross-compilation and a non-DOS operating system, it 
   should probably throw a warning note that at least a cross-gcc
   and cross-binutils will be needed in addition to djcrx201.zip
   (or maybe even point to a source where a binary distribution of
   such a cross-setup can be found, like the Linux-to-DJGPP
   suite on sunsite).
