-: None of them have x86 CPUs, so DJGPP is not the right tool for them.

I've actually been looking into this for my Psion S5 and S7.
There are two (at least) things to try:

(1) Get for a DOS emulator for your PDA, then try to use djgpp from
the emulator.

(2) Install a linux kernel on your PDA, then install dosemu to run djgpp.
(I think I prefer this approach, but I haven't yet located an ARM-binary
of dosemu.)
