Yup. I wrote DJGPP when I worked at Data General, back in the late
80's. At the time, my job was designing PC motherboards (DG tools on
Eclipses, then Cadstar on PCs). I designed a 12MHz 80286 one, and a
16MHz 80386 one (the new 80386 was ∗why∗ I created DJGPP). The '386
one got fabbed and I manually built the first board myself :-) (yes,
it worked 100%)

Ah, those were the days.
