This is Bruce Evans' C compiler and binutils package.


Either the compiler as the assembler are able to generate 16-bit code.
Hence it's possible to compile BIOS and DOS code under Unix.

The C compiler does understand K&R1 syntax, with a few restrictions
regarding bit fields.  See the file work/bcc/bcc-cc1/bcc.bugs for
Bruce's bug list.

The binutils (assembler and loader) have been renamed to as86 and ld86
to not conflict with the system's assembler and loader, but they are
also available in the regular BINDIR (normally /usr/local/bin).

It's also possible to generate MC 6809 code with bcc/as.  (This is a
compile-time option however, and not supported by the binary package
as it comes with FreeBSD.)
