Hello

we are developing a bios using gcc to produce 16-bit x86 code. Therefore
we use the '.code16'/'.code16gcc' keyword in our C code. Unfortunately
this way the code is limited to 64kb in size, which are now no more
enough. 

Do you know any solution to circumvent that problem ?
- Other good 16-bit compilers don't exist for linux (bcc/dev86 is
  quirky).

big thanks in advance
josef
