OK..the libraries won't work anyway. 
The only immediate solution for you is to get the additional GNU tools
from DJGPP (make, etc..) and use them with Watcom C. The DJGPP team will
be happy if you submit additional patches for anything you port. You can
wait for NetBSD's dosemu to come in. Unless you can convince Watcom to
offer a UNIX crosscompiler this is, IHMO, as near as you can get. :(.
