Add a section to your djgpp.env file, for example:

- - - -

[make]
CC=gcc
prefix=%\>:prefix%%\DJDIR%
LIB_PATH=%\>;LIB_PATH%%\DJDIR%\lib

- - - -

I have used back-slashes because the gnu utilities understand both types,
some DOS constructs eat forward-slashes, and not everyone will have cp,
install, mv and rm but must make do with copy, move and del.  It is trivial
to convert the expressions back to forward slashes.

With this addition one can refer in the makefile to $(CC), $(prefix),
$(LIB_PATH) etc. as many items as are in the djgpp.env file for make.
