What is the difference between gcc and emx?  I noticed that gcc has more 
header files including the os2incl ones i.e. pmbitmap.h, etc.

Which is better?

Can the headers from gcc2-222 be used with emx0.8f?

emx includes support for a debugger, PM (so you don't want to use those gcc 
headers), faster floating point math, facilities for creating bound execs 
(that run under Dos _and_ OS/2), an assembler, text & graphics libraries, 
and other various goodies. It also makes smaller executables if you use 
emx.dll.
