I think some editing og djgpp.env (or setting additional environment
variables) will still be necessary.  For example, directories such as
%DJDIR%/contrib/include/grx20 need to be put on C_INCLUDE_PATH.  Also,
some libraries might need to be shared between different versions of
the compiler.

It's true that the amount of hacking is much less, which is why I
think the new scheme is better.
