Hello,
	If you can get your hands on a 68k Unix box the compiler just needs
to be told to save the relocation information and you have to filter that
to look like a Gem program.
	The only problem with this solution is that you get to write your
own system calls which I think is worth the price. If you would like to
see an example filter, one that converts a Unisoft ld format to a Gem format.
	By the way getting the character oriented stuff is actually pretty
easy. 
					Good Luck.
