It's possible, but not quite in the Windows context. The final EXE will not
tolerate any missings references (unless you hack about), but if you want to
check this out:

There is another utility out there, but I don't have an address. I think this
one is easy enough to use. Requires C++ to compile, but links to C.

ming from gcc; I think the compiled code is incompatible with
the linker RSXNTDJ uses. For example try a simple "Hello world" program
using printf(), make sure to save it with just a ".c" extension, compile it
with the -Zwin32 switch and you get a console program that works. Now just
change the extension to ".cpp" and BINGO, the compile fails (usually at the
link stage).

The problem here is that the MSSDK include files have changed and are now
incompatible with the dif file. It is possible to go through the dif file
(it's text) and find the changes yourself, though I wouldn't wish that on
anyone.
