Concerning the discussion on GPM.  GPM is a commercially available M2
compiler available for various Unix platforms.  For educational institutes
that use GPM there will soon be a MS-DOS version available for distribution
to students.  The MS-DOS version will not be optimized, but its code will
compile on any Unix GPM compiler.  GPM has had extensive work done on 
compile time error messages, and on optimization.  GPM reports some of
the best compile time error messages that I have seen.  The optimization
is done on the M2 code, before translation to C.  In informal tests here
at QUT our M2 code usually runs faster than optimized C code written with
all of the common optimization tricks.  Work is also being done on writing
native code compilers for the MIPS architecture.  The contact for 
information of getting GPM commercially has been previously posted to
this news.group.
