Beats me..  gcc is the one compiler of the free software compilers it
might be possible to integrate with.  I think it is a real pain to
start with.

If someone knows more about gcc feel free to go ahead and try.

Mostly I am avoiding that route in the interests of simplicity and
comprehensibility.  Someone familiar with gcc might have a different
take on the situation.

As things get a little farther I hope to publish the subset of C I
plan on using, which can aid other attempts.
