Driver for PC-II GPIB (ieee-488) for WATCOM compiler

I already know (doing it for 16 years) how to run PC-II IEEE-488 cards under
Borland or Microsoft C++ compilers but my new problem is running one with
code developed on a WATCOM C++ compiler. Speed makes a DOS extended mode
program MANDATORY. (Death to GUIs but anyway...) WATCOM won't link un the
mcib.lib file that NI provides. (library format is different)
QUESTION - Has anyone developed or written a WATCOM linkable driver for the
older PC-II IEEE/GPIB cards (with the old calls - ibfind, ibsic, ibcmd, ibrd,
ibwrt, etc..) so that I can link it to my DOS extended mode app with WATCOM?

I am having a similiar problem. I am using WATCOM C/C++ compiler with our own DOS extended mode utility. I am unable to get the GPIB libraries to link with our utility. Did you ever get your problem resolved? Any info you can provide would be most useful...
