DJGPP is a DOS compiler. It produces 32 bit DOS executables that work
fine under DOS as it is. If you can't run the DJGPP compiled executable
under DOS then you need DJGPP's 32 bit dos extender cwsdpmi.exe to be
placed anywere on your path. It you havn't got it, get the file
csdpmi4b.zip from the v2misc directory of your DJGPP mirror.

The mad decoder uses integers instead of floating point to decode.
If someone were to port to dos, it probably would work ok on a 486.
