The subject says it all.  What are the differenced between gcc and emx/gcc
ports for OS/2.  What do each of them have that the other doesn't etc..  Which
produces better code?

emx is gcc and more...

emx includes a bunch of OS/2 specific things you might want, such as
a text window manager, PM support, etc.  gcc is just gcc.

emx also has a debugger and faster floating point support. The executable 
files are also smaller if you use emx.dll.
