Well, they would work perfectly well, as long as whoever wrote the
libraries also converted the macros, so that the library headers and
command offsets/parameters were set up exactly the same as if you
used the Blitz library macros.
The added advantage is that if you use a decent assembler, it can
create 020+ code for you, rather than you having to hand-assemble
some instructions.

What assembler were they written for? Is there no way of getting that
program? Or even converting them so that they work in Blitz, all the
ASM code will be roughly the same, unless non-68000 code has been
used, in which case you will need to convert the opcodes yourself.
