Dev86 for debian appears to have been split into the bin86 and bcc
packages.  It took me quite a while to work that out!

    $ apt-cache show bin86 bcc

    Package: bin86
    Priority: standard
    Section: devel
    Installed-Size: 208
    Maintainer: Juan Cespedes <cespedes@xxxxxxxxxx>
    Architecture: i386
    Source: linux86
    Version: 0.16.14-1.2
    Depends: libc6 (>= 2.3.2.ds1-4)
    Conflicts: linux86

    Description: 16-bit x86 assembler and loader
     This is the as86 and ld86 distribution written by Bruce Evans.
     It's a complete 8086 assembler and loader which can make 32-bit
     code for the 386+ processors (under Linux it's used only to create
     the 16-bit bootsector and setup binaries).

    Package: bcc
    Priority: optional
    Section: devel
    Installed-Size: 248

    Description: 16-bit x86 C compiler
     This is a C-compiler for 8086 cpus which is important for the
     development of boot loaders or BIOS related 8086 code.
     .
     It is possible to run 8086 code under i386 Linux using an emulator,
     `elksemu', also included in this package.
