well, lcc has a license that would not be offensive to most people,
but to my knowledge, the same kind of effort is not expanded on it.
except norman wilson, noone uses it in production. so it does not
optimize; there has been a few optimizers that can be wired with lcc
(as i pointed out in the distant past), but noone wants to bother.
there must be another reason why people keep hacking gcc to death.
maybe it is complexity or fame or both; certainly easier to get
name recognition with gcc than with lcc for sure...
