ELKS is the Embedded Linux Kernel Subset, it works on 16-bit systems, right? That is correct.

Interestingly, upon this revisit, I’ve found word of a new project, gcc-ia16. This is the successor of bcc, a version of GCC that allows you to target 16-bit Intel x86 processors. Interestingly, FreeDOS is also using it.
