The assertion was that such a thing does not. It is is incumbent upon you, who want to refute that assertion to provide at least 1 example to disprove the general assertion. Claiming it is a research opportunity (because you don't know of any), is what i would expect of the average person cannot refute my stated position. Is that your final answer? ;-)

    Or would you like to get serious?

Intel's icc is available for Linux (for x86 and x86_64, I assume)
Sun's compiler is available for Linux (just for x86 and x86_64, I think)
I've used lcc on Linux
I've not tried clang on Linux

That's 4 without trying, all of which I believe can be used in some cases
without payment.

I have tried to get a hold of icc, you had to be a famous developer or pay money -- I wanted to try it because it was said to do a much better job of optimizing than the gnu compiler...

Somehow I don't know that your experience in getting free use of compilers is typical,

I wasn't aware Sun's compiler was available, unencumbered from sun and haven't heard of lcc/clang
will have to investigate them.

" did say:" I didn't ask for an exhaustive list -- even one compiler that produces as good as [code] and supports 32/64 bit linux and windows..."

   Do any besides gnu have 64-bit supp0rt on Windows?
