Did you read section 22.13 of the DJGPP FAQ list?  I think it explains 
that DXE's cannot access variables or functions from the rest of the 
program.  These (and other) restrictions are intentional, to keep the 
DXE-related code small.

Section 22.2 of the FAQ has a pointer to an alternative technique known 
as DLM, which is less restrictive.
