Some Arduino programs/libraries use gcc features which are supported by 
avr-gcc and not by Open Watcom. So we see the DJGPP as the best 
(compatible) solution for porting the original AVR-based Arduino to the 
x86 platform.

All standard API and most official libraries of Arduino have been 
ported, and we have successfully compiled most example programs and user 
libraries of the original Arduino under the x86 Arduino. At the moment 
the only issue remaining to solve is the limit of 8.3 filename. :)
