This is very interesting. I'm interested in rapid C-module prototyping
tool for Lua. luatcc is the one, but I've never got it to work --
partially because tcc does not support OS X, as I understand it.

Would it be possible to use Clue for rapid prototyping? It is not the
speed of resulting code that worries me most, but the speed of
compilation, and possibility to use it as run-time compiler for C code
at all.
