Subject: cbgrx103 won't compile

cbgrx103 won't compile on my system (dj 1.12, gcc 2.6.0, gnu make
3.71) for three reasons:

  - the `makefile.gcc's include directives which look like

      !if !$d(MODEL)
      MODEL = l
      !endif

    and so on.  Is this written for the Borland make or something?
    (The equivalent with Gnu make would be ifdef/endif.)

  - gas barfs on the /* comments */ in some of the assembler code.
    I think the rule

      .s.o:
              gcc -c $*.s

    needs changing to

      .s.o:
              gcc -x assembler-with-cpp -c $*.s

  - In the rule

      $(GCCLIB): $(GCCOBJ)
	      -del $(GCCLIB)
	      ar rvs $(GCCLIB) @&&!
	      $(GCCOBJ)
	      $(GEVENT)
      !

    the @&&! is obviously supposed to mean something like <<! but goes
    gets passed straight through to `ar'---is this a Borland thing?

Any suggestions?  (I haven't been able to try out the obvious fixes
because my PC is on the blink ...)
