I don't think that's necessary. INSTALL.W32 covers 3 compilers. If support for another OS/2 compiler is added it can be included in INSTALL.OS2 rather than clutter the root with multiple INSTALL.OS2-* files. >that the libraries produced by this process can only >be used with EMX applications.

True, the DLLs will only work properly with EMX gcc compiled apps (though I believe other compilers will work if you avoid stdio & sockets and can arrange matching the calling convention) but the primary target of this patch is people porting unix apps to OS/2 & that's usually done using EMX gcc. If you feel it's worth mentioning in the docs you can always submit a patch. >> This patch adds the ability to build shared libraries (DLLs) for the OS/2 >> platform.
