Some time ago, I has some success in using Dev-C++ with BC++ 5.5.
The idea was to put a layer between Dev and the compiler (whose name,
up to version 4.9.6.0 of Dev, seems to have been coded as "Gcc"), such
that when Gcc was invoked, the layer would map the command issued
by Dev to one which BC++ could execute. Something similar was also
done to manage the Makefiles and calls to Make. The solution is not 
the most elegant, but it worked. If you want more the details, I'll 
post the URL.
