This compiler is mostly written in Modula-2, but includes a bootstrap procedure via a modified version of p2c. =================================================== Below that it says something about Modula-3. (Since the Modula-2 is flagged "in development" I suppose I should stand corrected, but I did this "at a glance" just to see what the GCC page indicated was available. :-) I don't follow this sort of thing with any depth - just responding to the notion of having a multi-lingual compiler. It might be possible to take various binaries built to process different languages and write a front-front-end that looked for some indication of which language was in use and then invoked the appropriate EXE. That just seems like a lot of wasted bytes and potential configuration nightmare though, so it would be better if there were a single image/installation that did it "right".
