Don't even think about using Mike Lehman's C Compiler (DRI) .. you'll
spend more time chasing compiler and library bugs than those in your
own code. C80 might not be the most optimising compiler but at least
the code generated by it performs in a manner better than vaguely
related to the semantic intent of the source-code.


Personally, I use the Hi-Tech compiler (and have done since ~1983) in
both native and cross-platform environments,
