It looks like the question boils down to either "how did that part of

I have a copy of the source for a set of 68k tools (compiler, assembler,

which was based on work done by Chris Terman at MIT. This work was done back in
the mid 80s, so some work is likely needed to compile with modern tools. Let me
know if you would like a copy.

I know there's an old (I think) official Sega Genesis devkit that's,
erm, "around" on various console homebrew sites. No idea which exact C
compiler is included, but it's not too difficult to find.
