I'd recommend DINO. You can find it on
http://cocom.sourceforge.net/dinoload.html
Even my 11 years old son was able to design a programming language and
implement it on DINO as a school project for 3 months. You can find the
project as an example of DINO's usage on the same web page.
DINO has a fast Earley's parser inside it. It can be easily used for
parsing practically any programming language and code selection.
I am trying to write an optimized Oberon compiler on DINO. It is still
going well.

comp.compilers page.

comp.compilers archives again.
