Re: GCC Port (gcc backend) for Microchip PICMicro microcontroller

[Colm O' Flaherty]

Does anyone have any ideas about what gcc support is like for targets with 
no data stack?  The 14 bit cores (16F) mostly have a 2-8 level hardware 
stack, which is not part of the program or data memory, and is not 
addressable.  There is no data stack.

I'm hoping that there is an existing backend architecture where there is no 
stack, so that I can have a peep to see how the code fakes stack support, 
but so far, all the obvious candidates (the microcontrollers) seem to have a 
stack.

Ideas, anyone?
