	Alright, here we go:
Can anyone name a public domain or commercial C compiler for the 68000
that has been shown to:
	1)	Be a full (v7+ Kern. Ritchie) implementation
	2)	Supported by a subroutine library that is decent
	3)	Compile into a reasonable size
	4)	Compile to run in a reasonable time
       *5)	Source can be purchased
(* Click your heels three times and say...)

	If there is such a beast, I must have spent some time 
in a hole somewhere, for I can't find it.  I can find full imple-
mentations that make fast code but are megaliths, small but slow
ouput code produced, etc.
	I plan to do macintosh work and would like to breed my own
(fully windowed as opposed to partially as is predicted) compiler
using the macintosh junk while not killing the 68000.
	For the time being, we will pretend that cost is not 
the major factor that it really is.
