Hey, are there any out there or should I just take my time with GCC?

There's quite a number of 'free' compilers, and some are even portable.

Look at LCC and TenDRA

Why not GCC? It's probably the best free compiler out there.

Matter of opinion, and also depending on the platform.  GCC's good for Intel.  However, for sparc, it lacks heavily, even so that lcc is better at sparc.

common,

True well I am targeting the IA32 platform ATM. I guess I'll have to pick one and just run with it and enjoy those few days. However before I start any compiler porting I guess I should finish up the last aspect I'd like to have in place before that which is shared libraries.
