   My main recommendation for you would be: don't write your compiler in   
   C.  A compiler doesn't need low-level bit-twiddling thingies (it may   
   generate code that does it, but it won't do it itself), so it doesn't   
   need to be written in such a low-level language.  You'll be better off   
   writing it in a higher-level language.
