Michaelforney has also built croc [1], a qbe based C compiler. Really impressive!

Not as "impressive" as TCC, I'd say. Why? TCC has its own backend, and it has the preprocessor built in. (But QBE is indeed impressive.)
The assembly generated by cproc is more efficient than that generated by TCC, which is not great.
Yes but cproc supports c11
