Russel is looking for an 80186 cross-compiler. Alsys certanly used to have
such a product, although the current Aonix home page reveals no trace of
this (or any of the other old Alsys 83 products), so perhaps it is no longer
available.

No one that we know of has done a GCC (or GNAT!) port for the 16-bit x86
family. That would certainy be possible, but at this stage, it seems
unlikely that there is much demand for Ada 95 on such machines.
