What are the bugs in tcc you have discovered? I am using it almost every day for many years and yet to encounter a single bug. It generates much slower code than gcc but the point is it does it at least an order of magnitude faster. The code it generates is similar to code generated by Delphi mentioned in a sibling comment. I wish they added linear scan register allocator and inlining of small functions to tinyc wich would not slow down compilation I believe but would make the code much faster.
