Microsoft Windows 2000 has a bug that limits nesting of DPMI programs
to two levels.  So how does one run RHIDE > gcc > cpp/cc1plus/as/ld ?

Answer: The same way one does it on Linux.  Build a cross-compiler.
It would be hosted on Cygwin, the GNU environment for Windows, and
would produce DJGPP programs.

Anyone know what would be the hardest part about Cygwin x DJGPP?
