The idea is to allocate

There is also NwCC under BSDL but it still not as mature as gcc

That's not completely true.
A lot of GCC stubs are masked through macros, so, with a little work
on it, you can successful op

"not as mature as gcc" is an amazing understatement. nwcc has
no floating point support.

It depends. If nwcc has no knowledge of floating point
registers, then the optimized npx bzero and copyin/copyout
operations aren't available. Nothing like a slow kernel.
Thanks for the trust...
