Although I've never used it (and don't grok Python), it's also
mirrored on iBiblio:

I know Python 3 is heavily recommended, but I don't think 2.x is
horribly useless. (Similarly, we formerly had DJGPP support for Ruby
1.8.x, which actually was "mostly" standardized in ISO 30170, but no
1.9.x or newer builds.)

I don't know how well (if at all, anymore) they support "DOS" (or
DJGPP). But there was a thread about it (two years ago) on
news://comp.os.msdos.djgpp :

* Subject: "micropython djgpp build"  (25 Jan 2017)
* 
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/comp.os.msdos.djgpp/micropython%7Csort:date/comp.os.msdos.djgpp/AwKemzSvn6A/vTwKQxBcAgAJ

I don't know the details, so you'll have to rebuild it yourself, ask
the devs for help, or do without (sorry!).
