You could try building it from source. It needs the os4 threads library, but you might be able to link it against gnu pthreads or something if you built that.

It also might require some newer reaction features than are available on 3.9. I had a very quick browse of the amiga source, but nothing more.

(There are a bunch of other libraries you will need to build to link against too).

no idea if it uses other os4 features too.

I had a fiddle. ALso needs the os4 popup menu stuff. I guess this could be rewritten to use the popup menu library on aminet.

also picasso96->cgfx would be needed and the switch from allocsysobject to older style calls (CreateMsgPort/CreateIORequest etc).

Someone with more free time than me could surely do it, but there is some work involved.
