It seems it is not entirely unrealistic, see this for instance:
http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/CompileFarm#Currently_Running
Not sure about the status of that project though...

Another possibility may be to add the support for far
pointers to bcc:
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.x8086/2108

And yet another possibility is to write something on top
of llvm...

Another possibility might be to re-target sdcc, as mentioned
here:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-8086/msg00382.html
Actually I was even contributing to sdcc 10 years ago,
but now it seems to have grown by the order of magnitude,
so I don't know if it is still as simple as it was.

All of these projects are difficult enough, but are quite possible
for anyone motivated.
