f19re: a matching F-19 Stealth Fighter reconstruction

f19re reconstructs F-19 Stealth Fighter's DOS EGAME.EXE as a disassembly-derived assembly skeleton and incremental C translations. Its build compares the skeleton byte for byte with the original executable and checks C routines against the original machine code using Microsoft C 5.1.
