One way or another, the OS-9 C compiler is in 6809 ML, so you're going
to have to emulate. Seems like a reasonably short project to add a MESS
feature such that you can pass an OS-9 command line through the MESS
command line.

The only unknown for me, I think, is having MESS bring up the emulated
machine at the OS-9 prompt rather than going through the whole boot
process (booting would be slow). Can MESS do this?
