I just ftp'd the latest release of emx (the port of gnu compilers)
from the server in germany and the manuals and header files say that
the api calls are implemented for it.  

I can't test it out (still waiting for 2.0), but I'm sure it will be
on hobbes.nmsu.edu pretty soon.  The release is still 0.8, so you're
on your own.

If you're looking for an inexpensive way to get started, this may be
it.  I certainly hope to be able to contribute to the further
development of emx/gcc when I get my upgrade.
