Actually Lawrence Haynes, from the Open Watcom project re-engineered a
clean-room implementation for the Open Watcom project. It is called
'wipfc' and source code is available. There now exists native IPF
Compilers for OS/2, Windows, DOS and Linux.

Can you explain this in more detail? I remember reading many years back
an OS/2 e-Zine magazine which contained many images (logos, screenshots
etc) and it worked fine.
