-       Rumor is that the next version of the LCC compiler will
-       include an IL backend.  We do not know how extensive the support
-       for integration with .NET will be, but it would be an interesting
-       excercise to add an extension to C to call into .NET code.
+       <a href="http://www.cs.princeton.edu/software/lcc">LCC</a> 4.2
+       has been recently released.  This release adds support for compiling
+       ANSI C programs to CIL.  Note that the CIL support only works on Win32
+       right now, but should be easy to convert to Mono/other architectures.

 
        LCC is not an open source compiler, but it is free as long as you
        do not profit from selling it.
