That's a good one. I don't believe there are ANY ports of MFC (or OWL, for that 
matter) to DJGPP. There is an ongoing port of the standard templates library,
but porting MFC would be no minor project IMHO.
Might be a good idea to email Microsoft ( and Borland) and worry them to make a
DJGPP port of MFL and OWL, or at least assist. DJGPP is growing in popularity and use, 
but the big software corporations still refuse to acknowledge it as a market
(OK, maybe it isn't a market :)
Right now DJGPP isn't a Windows oriented compiler, and general supporting
C++ class libraries are practically non-existent. You might want to repost
this question on comp.os.linux to see if there are any Unixy equivalents of
MFC.
