Just so there is no misunderstanding.

As for free alternatives--I don't think there are any, especially if
you are looking for something "better" than the current GCC. The
various free C compilers I've seen over the years have been little
better than toys.
Obviously, compilers like LCC aren't "toys". By "free" I was following
your desire for a "BSD-licensed" (or better) compiler. LCC isn't that.
If it's "free enough" for you, then go for it. Whether it or some
other alternative is "better" *for your application* is up to you to
determine.
One of the issues with an alternative compiler is that you'll likely need
to keep GCC and associated tools around anyway, for ports, kernels, and
updates. Probably not a problem, but occasionally multiple tool chains
can be a pain.
