I'm trying to compile Nethack 3.0 on a IBM PS/2 Model 80 running 
AIX's DOS MERGE MS-DOS Emulator program. The compiler I'm using 
is Turbo C 2.0.  The make program I am using is NDMake 4.5. The 
termcap library I am using is Fred Fish's termcap library that came
with Nethack 2.2.  The linker I am using is Microsoft's Segmented-Executable
Linker, Version 5.01.21.  OK, now for the results.  Everything compiled except
for the level compiler.  But I used a sun compiled version to get the level
files.  All the source files will compile as long as I use -DMSDOS in the 
CFLAGS in the makefile.  What doesn't work is the link step.  NDMAke makes 
the responce file properly but the linker barfs with the following statement...
	LINK: fatal error L1093: O\MKOBJ.OBJ : object not found 
I checked, O\MKOBJ.OBJ does indeed exist.  Well... anybody?

Any help would greatly be appreciated.
