You can always try http://www.goof.com/pcg/

That's the Pentium Compiler Group. They produce PGCC, or Pentium GCC.
PGCC is based on EGCS source code, so releases of PGCC generally
coincide w/, though usually are a little behind, EGCS. Binaries seem to
be a little hard to come by for djgpp. The newest are PGCC 1.0.1, but
the newest source dist is 1.1.1. Compiling is somewhat difficult. I
haven't succeeded yet. Andris Pavenis has released a binary dist of EGCS
1.1.1, though it's in beta, sort of. EGCS 1.1.1 is a release, but the
DJGPP port is in beta. you can find it on the simtel.net in the djgpp/v2
dir.

Personally, I'm still struggling to compile EGCS 1.1.1, before I'll try
PGCC 1.1.1

I remember somebody saying that it's near to impossible unless you use a
cross-compiler. I'd love to prove that wrong, but I haven't succeeded
yet.
