you probbaly have to approach the project which has done the port.

It might be one of these:
http://www.cygwin.com
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net
http://unxutils.sourceforge.net
ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2gnu/

I'd guess that cygwin and gnuwin32 produce 32bit apps, while djgpp might be
16bit.  (djgpp creates 32bit code, but I think it has a wrapper which
might cause that technically, the program is 16 bit.)

Ask for help at the port projest you are using.
