You need to create it, by typing this:

go32-v2 is a program.  Run it from the DOS prompt with no arguments and 
it will print the available memory amount.

However, judging by the crash traceback, the above doesn't seem to matter 
in your case.  Your program generates a floating-point exception by doing 
some illegal floating-point operation, like dividing by zero, computing a 
square root of a negative number, or treating an integer like a floating-
point number.

Section 9.2 of the DJGPP FAQ list explains how to convert the funny 
numbers printed when the program crashes into a human-readable 
description of where the crash happens.  You will then need to debug your 
program at the locus of the crash.  If you can't figure it out, post the 
output of symify and the fragment(s) of your program where symify says 
the program bombed.
