You might be interested in a cross-compiler targeting DOS.  If you fetch
the file

ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2/djcrx202.zip

it explains how you can build a cross-compiler.  You'll need the sources
to GCC 2.7.2.1 and Binutils 2.7; the newer versions don't yet have the
necessary support (AFAIK).  I believe there are some files in DJCRX
which are in a different directory than the docs and Makefiles think;
you can just copy them.  If you have trouble, post again.
