I think the dos extender supplied with the PC port of GCC is called go32...
errrm as to where you can get it ... try archie.

You might get it at prep.ai.mit.edu 

in /pub/gnu/ports???  or something.  Maybe src.doc.ic.ac.uk in /pub/gnu .

I cant remember, but the initials of the guy who did it are djpgg (or something
like that.)  If you cant get it, mail me - you have an edinburgh dcs account 
haven't you (I seem to remember seeing your name!!).  I'm nrh@dcs.

Nick.
