Try calling the folks at Cygnus Support (the people who provide
commercial-grade support for GNU tools, at a reasonable price) at 
+1 415 322 3811.  When I spoke with Rob Savoye at the Embedded Systems
Conference a few weeks ago, I mentioned that I'd love to see gcc for the
8051 family;  he replied that a lot of the work needed to put gcc on
smaller-than-32-bit machines had already been done as part of another
project, and that it probably wouldn't be too hard to retarget the
compiler to produce code for embedded controllers.  All it'd take is
money, from some customer who wanted to pay Cygnus to finish the port.
