Actually, I like to use static nesting of procedure declarations, so 
this would be a show-stopper for me.

But I'm curious about tinycc. What CPU architectures are supported by 
this compiler? Obviously, x86 is there but I could not find a specific 
mention of others (eg. PPC). Does anyone have any pointers on this?

They claim very fast code generation at a performance cost of about 30% 
relative to GCC. That's still pretty good, providing it does some 
obvious optimisation.
