I just got hold of a pre-compiled 32-bit binary which use emx and rmx as
it's dos extender.  There was very little documentation on them supplied,
but I got the impression that they were part of a gcc port similar to djgpp,
but which was primarily designed for OS/2 (will djgpp compile OS/2 code
btw.?)

It may be heresy to post this to a djgpp newsgroup, but can anyone give me
any info on these extenders and/or gcc port?  I'm going to be doing
development for IBM under OS/2 starting at the end of July, so I'd be
interested in OS/2-able gcc ports.

I'd like to point out that I'm a djgpp user to try and avoid any cries of
"blasphemer!" or "defiler!"  *;O)

	Mark.
