`Wanting' is a nice word. I personally want Windows and OS/2 to provide
DPMI 1.0 services. BTW, you misunderstand the concept of DPMI. You are always
a slave to the OS you're running under. THERE IS NO WAY TO SUPPRESS THE DPMI
THAT OS GIVES YOU.
Now the linker: a mapped link should solve most of your problems. Not sure
about the switches, but something like this should do:

  gcc -Xlinker -Map ...

To be sure, check ld docs and gcc docs on passing options to ld.
