Here is my huge patch :-) It only changes osdefs.h. In fact, I expected more code checking for __DJGPP__. For __WATCOMC__, it's unclear for me yet if the code is specific to MS-DOS or to the Watcom compiler. For example, timemodule.c includes <i86.h> to get the delay() function. On Linux, I would prefer to use select(), on Windows, I would prefer to use the Windows code. We should check if OpenWatcom provides select() on Linux. I'm trying to build OpenWatcom for this ;) I created the issue #22592 to propose to drop the support of the Borland C compiler.
