sorry. i'm not following at all. are you using ken's compiler?
if not, how do you deal with unnamed structures. if so, don't
you have to do a lot dealing with object file formats?

If I'm reading brucee correctly, he's cross compiling using kencc but
running natively; there's no "native" compiler involved, just a (very
old-school seeming) loader program and his system-call thunks. Clever.

that's right. the only thing that needs a native compiler
is the launcher and Mr Syscall.
9eekern is of course compiled with kencc.
