It works fine for me (but I don't have FreeDOS installed and didn= 't
try to build on FreeDOS).

Feel free to do that, but personally, I think this is a waste of
energy. =C2=A0From my POV, the DJGPP build of Emacs is in maintenance mode:=
no new features specific to that build are or should be considered.

That's pretty m= uch the point: I am suggesting removing features specific to the build (in = this case, the build system) and letting the normal build system take the s= train instead.
