Hi,
I tried to compile this ... :
gcc -E vgabios.c | tools86 -E > _vgabios_.c
/usr/lib/bcc/bcc-cc1 -o vgabios.s -c -D__i86__ -0 _vgabios_.c
./dataseghack vgabios.s
# bug : with -j i get 1 byte displacement at the end of bin file !
#as86 vgabios.s -o vgabios.o -u -w -g -0 -j
as86 vgabios.s -o vgabios.o -u -w -g -0

To get this far, I had to install tools86 from the dosemu source and
change "dataseghack" to use /bin/sh instead of /bin/csh (csh is
_incredibly_ broken, and these days is non-standard. PLEASE do not
write any scripts in it. See
http://www.faqs.org/faqs/unix-faq/shell/csh-whynot/).
