I don't think you know, I don't have anything against PureC. It's just
that an open source project should be at least compilable with a free
compiler.

The problem is just that you use non-ANSI-C constructs all over the place.
I don't know why PureC accept this. Due to this reason I had to modify
large parts of the source (every file need heavy modifications).

So a branch doesn't make much sense.

Hehe, this one week doesn't matter very much :-)

Readding PureC compatibility should be not a problem now:

- I use nkcc routines from cflib (available for PureC/gcc)
- I use VDI bindings from gemlib (only vex_whlv binding is missing);
  the current gemlib is for PureC/gcc and uptodate
- I don't use any other library
- I removed all unnnecessary assembler things
