Building a "better compiler than gcc" is a matter of cutting-age scientific research, not of being able to write good code

Given that GCC is in the training data, it should not take much research to create an equally good compiler.
If reproducing data from the training set counts, then creating an equally good compiler is a matter of running `git clone` :D
