Get the assembly output of the program and use DJGPP's assembler or NASM
(probably NASM because most assembly output doesn't use DJGPP's style). Nasm
allows COFF output and is ready to be linked in. All you have to remember is not
to touch memory you shouldn't and how to read function arguements. I don't know
personally - asm is not my strong point.

Most good compilers will allow you to output assembly format of your C code so
you can inspect how it did with optimizing (did I spell that right?), and you
can use that for NASM.
