This sounds suspiciously similar to a problem I had a short time ago
while compiling emacs 19.31.  I could not execute any shell/compile/
grep commands from within emacs.  The fix was to patch the is-exec.c
and sigaction.c files in the DJGPP sources, recompile the DJGPP 
libraries, then recompile emacs.  Linking the *.c files into temacs
sounds strange to me, but maybe that's another way around this 
problem.  If you want to try what I did, get the library sources for
DJGPP from http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/ (and the patch utility),
apply the patch included below, and compile away.

Good Luck,
Scott
