Adds three compiler pages and links them from the compilers index:
compilers/borland-cc.md— Turbo C 1.0/2.0/Turbo C++ 3.1 (16-bit DOS, DOSBox) and Borland C++ 5.5bcc32(32-bit, wine). Includes the version-detection heuristics: diec's "Borland C/C++ 1991" fingerprint for TC 2.0, NE segment markers +e_lfanewoffset vs MSVC, Pascal string evidence, OMF comp.id. Documents the confirmed wibo gap (bcc32 aborts on the unimplementedGetThreadLocaleshim) and the Turbo C 4.5 CD finding (Quantum PAK archives, no compiler binary).compilers/open-watcom.md— Watcom C/C++ history (Doom's DOS release), Open Watcom 2.0; the only compiler family on the site with native Linux binaries; OMF objects,wccE1073 quirk, moving CI snapshot tag.compilers/delphi.md— Delphi 1.0, 16-bit NE output viaDCC.EXEunder DOSBox, Quantum PAK units, the Borland-ABI-not-matchable caveat, NE/Pascal-string identification.Note:
compilers.mdhere intentionally omits the MSVC entry — that lands in #2 (separate branch); whichever merges second needs a trivial index rebase.Facts sourced from rebrew / rebrew-toolchains provenance docs and verified where noted.
