You can't.  The library functions which your program is linked with all 
require DPMI services to call DOS and BIOS for such services as file I/O, 
getting time from the system, memory management, launching other 
programs, etc.  DJGPP v2 cannot work without DPMI.

You could use v1.x, I suppose, but that would get you in a different kind 
of trouble (and is also unsupported).
