Do you see a file named `./objs/obstack.o' inside dj112m1.zip?  If you
don't see it there, then probably your zip file was somehow corrupted and
you need to download it once again.  If you do see the file in the
archive, then maybe you didn't unzip it properly (don't forget the `-d' 
switch if you use PKUNZIP) or did something wrong while installing the 
maintenance releases.

The error message about the missing files in the libsrc/ directory can be
ignored if you didn't install the library sources (djlsr112.zip).  But
please don't give up on the problem with updating the library until you
resolve it, or else you'll suffer from some nasty bugs solved long ago. 
Also, install all the other maintenance releases (2 to 4) only *after* you
install the first one.  You might find the DJGPP FAQ list (available as
faq102.zip from the same place you get DJGPP) of some help in explaining
how to install maintenance releases correctly; read sections 3.7-3.11
there.  Section 3.11 might be the key to your problems.
