I'm just quoting the FAQ:
11.5 Q: Where can I get this RSX extender?
A: RSX is available by anonymous ftp from ftp.uni-bielefeld.de in
the directory /pub/systems/msdos/misc. The RSX extender includes
its own FP emulator and can run DJGPP programs in DPMI mode.
People who tried this, report that you must download and unzip
the RSXWDK2 source archive, not only the binaries (otherwise
you'll get General Protection Faults when you try to run DJGPP
programs), and replace your ld.exe with the old one distributed
with DJGPP 1.11m5 (the linker distributed with 1.12m4 aborts
claiming it doesn't have enough memory). See question 8.12 for
details on getting that older ld.exe.
