You don't need the djgpp.env file for setting a home directory. Use the
setdjgpp.bat (that's it's name isn't it?) file in %djgpp%/bin or create your
own batch file to initialize variables and perhaps start the dpmi server. I
have my own directory on drive C called "Morgan" and keep all my personal
files including my *.rc files within its subdirectories. It is essentially
my home directory and I use 'set HOME=c:/morgan' in my batch file. When bash
starts it always reads my custom .bashrc.
