The DOS port of the GNAT Ada95 compiler uses DJGPP as back-end.
GNAT/DOS system can be - and is - itself compiled with a version
of GNAT/DOS, so you can consider it as a huge DJGPP project...
You can have full programs (used commercially) reaching 3MB without
run-time checks or debug code, and 12MB with them...
