I'm confused.  How can a protected mode program interact with things like the
DOS file system without an extender?  Do you really mean that you have
written an extender which can be built using only tools which will be
provided as part of djgpp?  To remove the requirement of BCC or other C
compiler would seem to require that you provide a DOS linker and assembler or
C compiler of sufficient power that they can be used to build themselves.
