DJGPP builds DOS programs, not Win32 console programs.  This is a problem
because GNU Emacs on Win32 platforms can have exactly one DOS program
running underneath it.  Start bash.exe and try to invoke your DOS uudecode
program and Emacs will lock up, and you will not be able to break out.

There are several Win32 console mode shells out there (the NTEmacs FAQ
mentions at least two), but like 4DOS and 4NT they are not standard shells.
