Didn't they look at PCC as well? No idea what happened to that.

  They did, they seemed to have ruled it out. It doesnt support all their platforms yet, and development is fairly slow (small community, but growing). NetBSD (which supports clang or gcc because portability and choice) supports it but it cannot yet compile all the kernel for any architecture, so bits are marked to be compiled with gcc if you select pcc. It would be nice if all of kernel plus (non C++) userspace worked...

    Interesting. Thanks for the detailed reply.
