Yes, we strongly wish to replace GCC because we are stuck with
the last available GPLv2 version, which is ancient by now.
Newer GCC is GPLv3, and GPLv3 code won't

Thanks for clarification. Then it is something like MIT approach except
strict license policy.
This also means that there is probably desire to dump GCC favor of LLVM?
Drawbacks are using C++ code and reduced portability to legacy
platforms.
I personally don't find GCC to b

That's more than just a bit misleading.

Thanks for the comprehensive answer. I was already looking for coding
conventions. That preferred style is actually fair, and it is important
that everyone is in line and respect that. I also agree that goto is
fair way to model exceptions in C language.

Hi Matti,
i don't know about "safety critical" and have no idea whether
what you are saying / trying to do there makes any sense,
so i'm snipping that. Replying to your other questions...

At the moment I'm looking hobby project to maintain/improve my skills
developing open source software and my goal is to develop/improve some
open source component(s) to be suitable on safety critical use.

Hello,
Is it possible to dedicate CPU core to process?
What I'm looking for is simple way to take advantage of high quality and
secure code base of OpenBSD to use in real time/embedded applications.
If this trick can be achived, it is simple to use OpenBSD as platform
