In a nutshell, yes. Whoever created the binary distribution, should have
included the two header files (vga.h and vgagl.h) in there. All the
DJGPP.zip packages are neat and have the relative path of each file in the
DJGPP installation tree, which is really handy for installation.

But anyway, I actually solved the problem by extracting the two libraries in
the ../lib folder, and then I extracted the two header files from the source
distribution, into ../include. A bit roundabout, but it works, expecially if
you remember to use -lvga and -lvgagl at compile time.
