Cross compile to DOS.


This seems to be the place to get a definitive answer to this; actually
I'm suprised it isn't in the FAQ ...

Is there an patch, addition or configuration option to GCC that will
allow it to generate 16bit 8086 small (and preferably also large) model
code ?

I realise an 8086 will not have enough memory to actually _run_ GCC,
though in theroy a 80286 can, but this is no different to the machine
descriptions for 8-bit processors (6809/6811).

BTW; If anybody has a spare 5 minutes and want's to write the md's I'd
     suggest that NASM is the best assembler version to use ... :-)
