Cnews ported to V/AT?

Some 16 bit systems like the '286 in large model allow you to have as 
many 64kb data spaces as you want.  No single object can exceed 64k 
bytes though.  Anything that mallocs memory in small chunks should 
work.  Things that need large linear arrays don't work.  

Compiling all of C news in large model should work.  C news is quite good
about not assuming an int = 32 bits.
