 I would assume that an update to version 2.63
 from the current 2.54 version might help. 

Maybe; maybe not.  It works fine for me, with my MSYS version of grep:

$ grep --version
GNU grep 2.5.4

$ cat EOF a.txt
this
is
a
test
EOF

$ grep -n --color=always test a.txt
4:test   test appears here in red

What is apparent in the OP's post is that grep is emitting ANSI terminal control
sequences to control colour.  A standard Windows console doesn't know how to
interpret those, so we see the raw control codes in the output.  MSYS provides
its own terminfo emulation layer, to translate those ANSI codes into the 
appropriate
Windows console API function calls; perhaps your DJGPP variant does something
similar?

BTW, it is the existence of the terminfo emulation layer which allows the MSYS
implementation of GNU info to run successfully, when -- last time I looked
-- the GnuWin32 implementation just says terminal is too dumb to run info.

This probably isn't the best place to discuss MSYS features, because MSYS is
maintained by the MinGW Project, not the GnuWin32 Project to which this forum
relates.

That said, MSYS *does* include df.exe in it's current build of GNU coreutils
(coreutils-5.97), and we have no plans to drop it from future releases.  Your
misconception likely arises from its omission from the basic subset of the 
coreutils,
which is necessary to fulfil the MSYS mission statement, so it isn't included
in an msys-base install.  However, you can find it in the
coreutils-5.97-3-msys-1.0.13-ext.tar.lzma package, (currently installable using
mingw-get install msys-coreutils-ext, for those following mingw-get 
development).
CAVEAT: as a non-mainstream component package, this receives less rigorous 
testing
than the mainstream components.  I have never used this df.exe myself, so cannot
attest to its reliability or accuracy; YMMV.

I am no expert on DJGPP version 2 internals but it works just like the old DOS
programs in command line mode. It may use the MS terminal control layers or
it may use its own similar versions. It does not use Windows 32-bit API at all.
It may also run on old DEC systems such as VAX/VMS with VT100/102 terminals.
