There's a game called C++Robots, played by e-mail, run by Richard Rognlie
(rrognlie AT netcom DOT com or rrognlie AT prc DOT com) -- not sure if he uses a compiler
embedded within the game, or if he links everything beforehand.  He should
be able to give you some pointers, and possibly the source he's using.

You could probably link code on the fly; look for the COFF spec or appropriate
header files.  I'd suggest looking at the source for ld, but that's dangerous
if you want to release a commercial product (better to build from scratch
or from PD sources instead).

Just my personal $.02
