Does anyone make a POSIX-compliant library for DOS?  How much of POSIX
is IPC, process control, and other things that wouldn't make a lot of
sense under DOS?  

Does the GNU C++ for DOS have a POSIX library?  

The purpose of this question is that I need to write a mail gateway that
may need to run under DOS, Windows/NT, and UNIX.  Writing the core of
the application to just POSIX seemed like a safe strategy.
