One of my side goals during this time was also to get RA3 running - which was problematic because the server only ever shipped native binaries. A few months back, I took a while to decompile the server binary, until the C code was able to generate a byte-exact copy of the original library. I then slapped some #ifdef's in there to get it to compile to a QVM and posted this at https://github.com/inolen/ra3_176_decomp
Just posting in case there are any other RA3 fans that may be interested
