Your environment should have a variable named DJGPP which should point to 
the exact pathname of the file DJGPP.ENV on your machine.  If you don't 
have that variable defined, type this from the DOS command line (or add 
it to your AUTOEXEC.BAT and reboot):

	set DJGPP=c:/djgpp/djgpp.env

(but change that to the actual path of djgpp.env on your system).

That file defines a variable `LIBRARY_PATH' in the [gcc] section which 
tells gcc to instruct the linker to search your lib/ subdirectory.

To verify that the linker indeed searches that directory, add -v to your 
link command line.  Gcc will then print the way it invokes the linker 
(`ld'): you should see a -L switch there which includes your lib/ 
subdirectory.
