I can help with that.  The Sed scripts are all invoked by the script
config.bat that is in the top-level directory.  See msdos/README.

Not recommended: the Emacs configury and the top-level Makefile.in
were never made to DTRT for the DOS port, so I presume you will have a
lot of obstacles to negotiate.

Depends on how many changes will be needed.
