Are you sure you need the sources of gdb? you don't want to compile RHIDE, just 
the TVision.

If I remmember well:

make tvision/include/tv.h

Is the way to create TVision directly.

Don't know. Does RHIDE work better than the curses examples in your EGA?, if 
yes, that's a good point. Do you have any idea about TVision? is a little 
complicated.

No at all.

Because these patches corrects hundreads of lines to make it work with djgpp 
(keyboard, mouse and screen output are totally different, all the inline 
assembler is replaced, etc).

I just know JPTUI but no sources.
