Something is clearly wrong with your installation if you needed to do 
that.  Editing DJGPP.ENV's ``greek'' was identified as a frequent culprit 
for problems in many installation, so I definitely don't recommend that.  
If you want to investigate why didn't your installation work without 
editing DJGPP.ENV, I'd be glad to help you.
