I need to generate good, reliable code for a 68000 for which gcc is
ideal.  However, the compiler must run on DOS.

I already use gcc to generate 68000 code under Interactive UNIX.

I would therefore like to to be able to run gcc as a cross compiler on
286 and 386 machines running DOS to generate code for a 68000.  I
appreciate that an extender is essential for this, the real question
is will gcc run under a 286/386 extender or does the compiler itself
require a 386 extender?

I know that gcc will run under a 386 extender (the djp version?), if
there is no hope of running on a 286 could this version be changed to
generate 68000 code?

Thanks for your help.
