GCC (from the GNU project, formally called the Free Software Foundation)
is an ANSI compiler, and it works on the ST.  I flamed its version 1.21,
but I'm told that 1.35 is really much better.  It is free, with certain
copying restrictions; mainly, they say you can't impose any
restrictions.  The GNU people are producing a UNIX workalike, complete
with OS and the major (and some minor) tools.  Their yacc workalike is
called "bison" and they must have lex and probably awk, too.  An ANSI
compiler with a decent catalogue of warnings amounts to the same thing
as lint, so that takes care of that. 

You can get GCC from some of the ST and/or UNIX archives.  Somebody else
will have to get you the address of the FSF, I don't know what it is.
