XDS-C is a Modula-2/Oberon-2 "via C" compiler: its output is ANSI C, K&R C, or C++ source code, which is subject to further compilation by a third party C/C++ compiler.

Yes - this may well be a stumbling block.

Damn, this one I did not try. I studied at Frankfurt not KArlsruhe :-)

Too bad, they only offer an old linux binary and no source

As often is the case, the Wayback machine comes to the rescue!

it also "abandoned" but of interest for experimentation purposes I have been too busy myself to try it out myself but it did look interesting

as long as you have the source code then it is not truly abandoned like the bad old days when the vendor went belly up you were out of luck

By the way targeting C these days is quite common but usually is for larger 32 bit general purpose platforms.

But w/o reason. AFAIK the first machine running C was a 16bit CPU.
