I've been porting subc https://www.t3x.org/subc/ to my 36-bit RISC machine arch. It's by no means 'full' C, however:

1. It is Public Domain. I like that.

2. There is a book ($) that explains it in detail (and it's good).

I respect the design choices made, and the compiler can compile itself once bootstrapped. It's really fast, but code gen is only 'ok'. That's a tradeoff that works for me.
