I haven't tested GSL-1.3 for DJGPP, but newly released 1.4
builds for DJGPP "out of box". To run testsuite one should
add $(EXEEXT) where it's missing in Makefile.am files:

for x in `find gsl-1.4 -name 'Makefile.am'`; do
    mv $x $x.orig
    sed -e '/^TESTS\ =\ /s/test$/test$(EXEEXT)/' \
        -e '/^TESTS\ =\ /s/test\ /test$(EXEEXT)\ /' \
        -e '/^TESTS\ =\ /s/test_static$/test_static$(EXEEXT)/' \
    <$x.orig >$x
done
    	 
(and of course rerun automake and configure after that)

If this is done, also all tests passes without problems.
Of course, LFN support is required, but it's OK under Win98.
