lcc version 3.3 is now available for anonymous ftp from
ftp.cs.princeton.edu in /pub/lcc/3.3.tar.gz. This release corresponds
to the second printing of "A Retargetable C Compiler: Design and
Implementation" (Fraser & Hanson, Benjamin/Cummings, 1995, ISBN
0-8053-1670-1), and it fixes all of the errors noted in the errata at
http://www.cs.princeton.edu/software/lcc/errata.html.

For the latest information on lcc and on "A Retarget C Compiler", see
http://www.cs.princeton.edu/software/lcc/.



For those who don't know, lcc is a retargetable C compiler in
production use at Princeton University and AT&T Bell Labs.  It's
implementation is described in the book listed above.

A few notes:

1)  It is easily portable; the system dependent portions can be only a
    few hundred lines long

2)  It works as a cross compiler for any supported platform

3)  It's *really* fast

4)  It's really easy to install
