You can't run Turbo C on your bsd system for the same reason you can't run growth.exe on your BSD system! It's not DOS! It won't work. You could install DOSbox, maybye, and run growth.exe inside it, but if you really need it to run on your BSD system, you'll just have to buckle down and fix those errors.
It's likely that growth.c is using nonstandard Borland-only libraries, etc. You'll need to modify the program to make it use portable alternatives. I'd suggest posting the errors in our C programming subforum.

LEARN ABOUT NETBSD
compat_osf1
COMPAT_OSF1(8) BSD System Manager's Manual COMPAT_OSF1(8)
NAME
compat_osf1 -- setup procedure for running OSF/1 binaries
DESCRIPTION
NetBSD supports running OSF/1 (a.k.a Digital Unix, a.k.a. Tru64) binaries on NetBSD/alpha systems. Most programs should work, including the
ones that use the shared object libraries. Programs that make direct MACH system calls will not work. The OSF/1 compatibility feature is
active for kernels compiled with the COMPAT_OSF1 option enabled (see options(4)).
To run dynamically linked programs, you will need the OSF/1 shared libraries, runtime linker, and certain configuration files found in /etc.
These are installed in a ``shadow root'' directory called /emul/osf1. Any file operations done by OSF/1 programs run under NetBSD will look
in this directory first, and fall back to the file system proper. So, if an OSF/1 program opens /etc/svc.conf, NetBSD will first try to open
/emul/osf1/etc/svc.conf, and if that file does not exist it will then try /etc/svc.conf. Shared libraries and configuration specific to
OSF/1 should be installed in the shadow tree.
Setting up /emul/osf1
The simple technique is to install pkgsrc/emulators/osf1_lib. (You may also want to install pkgsrc/www/navigator and/or pkgsrc/www/communi-
cator.)
Alternatively, if you have access to an OSF/1 machine and if the licensing details permit, you can copy the contents of:
/shlib
/usr/shlib
/etc/sia
/usr/lib/X11/locale
(The latter is required to run Netscape Navigator or Communicator.)
Also copy
/etc/svc.conf
/usr/ccs/lib/cmplrs/otabase/libots.so
/sbin/loader
Or, simply NFS mount the appropriate directories under /emul/osf1.
SEE ALSO
config(1), options(4)
BUGS
Your hostname(1) must contain a dot or your resolv.conf(5) must contain a search line. Without one of those, the OSF/1 resolver will die and
no hostname resolution will be possible.
Certain values in /emul/osf1/etc/svc.conf can cause programs to fail with ``Bad system call''.
Pathnames pointed to by symbolic links are not looked up in the shadow root when running an OSF/1 executable. This is not consistent.
