I just did a search on DJ Delorie's site through the mail archives,

and I was searching about Mac stuff. What I found out was that there's a GCC for the Macintosh, but the catch is that it's for the MkLinux OS. With that in mind, since GCC is available on that platform and as long as I code for Linux, could GPC generate code for MkLinux? If there's not presently a binary for it (which I doubt, but I haven't checked), I'll compile one provided that my Mac supports MkLinux.

The mkLinux port is old enough that I believe they use GCC 2.7.2.x. So, if you're handy with diff & patch you could make it work, I guess.

You would have to pay attention whether the mkLinux GCC patch touches any of the GCC files which are `reused' by GPC, such as c-common.c->gpc-common.c, c-decl->gpc-decl etc. In that case, you may have to patch those too.

Good luck!
