Get the sources and compile them with DJGPP.

ELF is not supported by DJGPP, but even if you could convert the library
to the COFF format, you probably will still have unresolved references 
when linking due to different internals of libc.

Sorry, I don't know where (or even if) you can get the sources of glide.
