I remember I've read something about this on Linux Hater's Blog (btw,
LHB is a good one) but can't recall. 

So take the following with some sort of humor. Not as enjoyable as LHB
but the following's the best I can find.

- Is GCC critical to Linux? All of the following are able to compile the
kernel.

LLVM http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/pipermail/cfe-dev/2010-October/011711.html
TCC http://bellard.org/tcc/
ICC http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-compilers/

Btw, I'm trying to get 2.6.36 compiled with icc (someone claimed that it
was possible without any patch
http://linux.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=1832598&cid=33974198 ) but I
personally wasn't able to. They said icc makes it run 20% faster. Not a
bad deal.
