Let's not forget the System Programming C (SPC) option, which has been around for many years. This was sold early on as a facility for writing exits and the like, and indeed it can be used for just about environment-free programming. It comes with a "smaller-than-LE" RTL, and you can provide your own heap and stack management routines. But it emits object code rather than HLASM statements, so you can't include inline assembler.
