I'm proud to preset bgcc, 'The Brett Glass compiler collection', released under the BSD license, of course. As a lot of you know, I'm a professional programmer who does mostly embedded systems work, and the need for a truly free (free as in Richard Stallman blows dead goats) has arised many times. People can try an early beta, currently builds on FreeBSD and NetBSD. Get it from: http://www.brettglass.com/downloads/bgcc-0.0.tar.gz Brett Glass to the rescue one more time.
