I was excited about PCC when the project was revived a couple years ago, hoping it would become the default compiler for the C++ and GPL phobic OpenBSD. The compiler does not appear to have made much progress in the last couple years, unfortunately.
Perhaps clang will carry over to OpenBSD so the project can ditch their custom version of GCC. PCC, with its few moving parts, does seem to embody the OpenBSD philosophy more than LLVM, though.

- indeyets 13y agoI guess you were thinking about NetBSD ;)
- tedunangst 13y agoI'm pretty sure OpenBSD runs on all of those architectures.
