I just thought that people here might be interested to know that I've been 
(slowly) working on resurrecting the old ACK compiler toolchain, used by 
Minix. It got open sourced a few years ago, under an extremely liberal BSD 
license.

The reason why I say this is that it is, as far as I know, the only decent 
free ANSI C i86 compiler. Tiny and small model only, unfortunately, but 
that's all that ELKS requires. It should certainly be better than bcc, but 
then a lot of things are...
