The solution would need to be rock solid, for me to jump at it. DJGPP
is very stable on plain DOS, and its users expect stability.

It obviously has problems with protected-mode programs and
environments, and with DOS extenders. DJGPP programs switch the
machine to 32-bit protected mode, so any programs that have
difficulties with that environment are not promising. And the fact
that DJGPP is not mentioned as a solution for DOS programs that
support LFN does not help to remove the cloud.
