I said it is possible.

I think the reply you cite addresses working form the IDE.  I had to 
use the command line linker to create a device driver.

Without the version of the DDK that was intended for Borland tools 
(from NuMega if I remember correctly) it is not easy.  With the 
version I thought it a bit easier mostly because of the better docs of 
that DDK version.  I do not know if they still sell that DDK version.
