I build using Borland C++ v4.02 command-line version.  I don't get
quite the same sizes as the released version, but close enough (and it
still works!).

AFAIK, SNEWS is C++ (although only in a few places - no classes or
anything like that) and KA9Q is C (a lot of it K&R C, without function
prototypes)...
