That's because it is usually much easier to install GCC on the Unix
system and use it there than to set up DJGPP as a cross-compiler for a
Unix target.

Why can't you use DJGPP to develop the code and compile it without
linking (so it is free of any compile-time problems), then move the
code to the Unix box where you install GCC and compile, link and debug
it there?
