It appears that the instructions in the FAQ are incomplete.  Here's the 
updated entry from the next version:

If you'd like to produce printed docs of the library reference, TeX might
complain that it cannot find a file named `libc2.tex'.  This file is
generated from all the `*.txh' files in the DJGPP source distribution
(`djlsr201.zip').  In order to build this file, you need install
`djlsr201.zip', then go to the `src/libc' directory and type this from
the DOS command prompt: 

	make -C ../mkdoc
	make doc

If the above command fails due to unresolved externals, you will need to
edit the file `makefile' in the `mkdoc' directory.  It has a line which
calls `ld' (the linker), where you should change `-lgcc -lc' into
`-lgcc -lc -lgcc'.  Save `makefile' and try the above commands again.
