Joel, just email me man and I'll hook you up. :-)

It was for windows, using SwiftForth, but I wrote a cross compiler for
the GBA (ARM7) and still have all the sources sitting around that
you're welcome to. Shouldn't be terribly difficult to add ARM9 support
for the DS as they are very similar to each other.
