The last version of Manx's Aztec C I received does run under MPW.  I
am getting a little disturbed at Manx however since I am a long term 
user and bought upgrade subscriptions at $100 for the last two years and
received no upgrades.  Aztec C has been a little funny in the Mac world
because of the console driver equivalent used.  Code would run under the
Aztec shell or had to have the con added to the system.  (Now it runs
under MPW but you loose some tools like the vi editor).  For cross
development, it wouldn't present a problem.
