Thanks to everyone who offered various suggestions.

However, that 1st major error which was a redefinition of 'truncf'
in libm.h from Khusraw's mplayer source code versus the original
definition in djgpp's math.h turned-out to be just one of many, many
incompatibilities.

When I corrected that one by editing libm.h to match 'truncf' in math.h
anther incompatibility would crop-up... fix that one and another would crop-up
etc...etc...

So, it seems to me that when Khusraw compiled mplayer.exe in 2012
that compile must have using some 'custom' libraries rather than the 'stock'
libraries included in djgpp.

If that assumption is correct... this mplayer source code is not going
to compile without having those 'custom' libraries.
