When I compiled a recent version of tinycc from mob, I looked at the
source of the manpage. I don't like it. I learnt about the mdoc(7)
format for writing man pages and thought to use that format for the
tcc man page. The rewrite is attached.
What do you think about this mdoc formatted manual page
why not 0.10.0 or maybe 1.0.0? what versioning system had been
followed? semver or something else?

Interesting project.
Because you're building the smallest possible usable system, I'd
suggest using a port of OpenBSD doas(1) e.g.
https://github.com/slicer69/doas .
doas is smaller, simpler alternative of sudo. I think it suits your
project well.
Also, a salute to you for building an OS using tiny
Great achievement
On OpenBSD x86_64, applied your patch and tried to compile, to get an
error that ucontext_t doesn't have uc_rbp as a member; i think that
was a typo and would be: sc_rbp. fixing that, it compiled smoothly
tried to compile a c file using this newly built tcc fails with crt0.o
etc.
