I was just thinking that myself. There are two issues here :

1. The gcc : I have %99 of the information about the function bodies of
parrot c source code in rdf/xml. That could be fed to parrot.

2. The pnet/C : there has been work done by Rhys to make a managed c
compiler for pnet. Gopal has been working on a parrot bytecode emitter
for Pnet.
