Well... The Watcom linker is currently supported for the 16-bit DOS 
target ("msdos") and win16, AFAIK. It is certainly not supported for the 
go32v2 target, which is the main 32-bit DOS target in FPC. In the past, 
there's been an attempt to create a clone of the go32v2 target named 
"watcom" (with a specific partial RTL clone). However, that attempt 
hasn't been actively tested and/or maintained recently. You might be 
able to revive it, but no guarantees.
