I recently used the Microtech Z80/HD64180 C cross compiler for an embedded
control project and found it quite adequate. The one serious bug I found
(it barfed on arrays of structures with mixed int and float data types) was
quickly dealt with by their cust. service dept. (they got me a work-around).
For lack of a source level debugger (arrggh!) I had to examine the compiler
output at the assembly level numerous times (no fault of Microtech) and found
that it produced reasonably tight, efficient code.
