I appreciate your compiler comparisons and agree that 
your clean install philosophy is the best way to use multiple compilers.
Why not buy a copy of Opus make and use it (cleanly installed) to do the
makes? They're advertising both DOS and OS/2 now. You could give us all a
test report and let us know whether it's better than the bundled makes.
Cheers,
