PCC is only a c compiler but that being said i have compiled everything in the PCC-Musl env except m4 and the kernel. I know qcc is a If and after toybox-1.0 this conversation is a hypothetical more or less.
>From what i have been reading and running into thus far it appears the kernel is written with the explicit assumption that it is and always will be compiled with gcc. GCC specifically is called within scripts and possibly code. Back when you were working on or thinking about the QCC project did this ever come up and if so how would it be handled theoretically? Would QCC handle it or would kernel patches be proposed and pushed upstream? thanks, stephen
