How about the Arrowsoft free assembler the FreeDOS guys uses? For 32-bit,
I expect we're all jumping on to DJGPP, right? And the FreeDOS guys
already have a 16-bit C development system running, though it is not
really ANSI C (not complete in some ways), but should do just fine to port
assembler to C, no? ;-)

Reminds me of the "minimal RTLs" for Turbo Pascal, to do demos and such...
