I do not wish to dampen your spirits but recognition of the terms of use
of the compiler from the Borland Community website is in order. Whilst not
prohibiting your own personal playing and learning, distributing the
result to others is contrary to

"These historical files are provided to the Borland community free of
charge. They may be downloaded and used [..] for personal use only."

from HTTP://community.Borland.com/article/0,1410,20841,00.html relating to
Turbo C version 2.01. However it is possible to buy Turbo C++ 3 in a pcak
with a Win32 compiler too.

"The long term goal is to write an OS,"

Good luck, hope you do well.

"the short term goal is to make modifications to the GNAT compiler so it
can run on a bare x386+ compatibles in pmode. [..]"

I like that.
