It looks like you didn't unzip the files with the '-d' command, and they
all got put into the same directory (ugh).  DJGPP expects to find things
in the directory structure that it is zipped with, so go back and check
your installation!

The correct way to unzip the DJGPP files is this:

pkunzip -d -o <file>.zip

One way to check that the directories were created properly is to look
in the 'manifest' directory for the files labelled *.mft, and examine them
to see where each file is supposed to be.
