Hello,

  I'm thinking about porting gcc 2.3.3 to a 16 bit microprocesor
  (similar to pdp-11). 
  
  In the documentation states that gcc is tuned for 32 bit procesors.
  The memory model that this micro suport is a 16 bit words array
  indexed by 16 bit directions. So everything is 16-bit in this micro.

  Can anyone tell me if this is a limitation for gcc, or just
  everything will go fine.

   Thanks in advance.

      Joaquin.
