Please check the list of bugs submitted to the DJGPP bug-tracking system
at http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/bugs/.  If I'm not mistaken, there are a
few bug reports about scanf there with fixes.  Please try those fixes and
see if they solve your problems too, because those fixes will go into the 
next DJGPP release if nobody reports any further bugs. 

In general, it's a good idea to check the above URL before submitting a 
bug report (this is explained further in section 22.1 of the DJGPP FAQ 
list).
