Hay, I just asked the author of voc about porting it to OpenBSD, I do use
voc on GNU/Linux, I was thinking about moving to OpenBSD. I will let you

What architecture are you targeting? For instance, I'm not sure why,
but I don't see anything for AMD64. Anyways, at least i386 has two:

ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/5.7/packages/i386/

1). oo2c_32-2.1.11p1.tgz
2). obc-2.9.2p1.tgz

Interesting, the OBC compiler is Oxford Oberon Compiler

http://spivey.oriel.ox.ac.uk/corner/Oxford_Oberon-2_compiler

"The compiler is written in Objective Caml, and the runtime system is written in C."

It is usually good to write a compiler in itself, to prove that "itself" is worthy. That it compiles itself is a good test that the language is worth its salt. It's written in Objective Caml, so it's not a worthy test, but this is still a very interesting compiler and project regardless.

Yes I realize this is an old post I am replying to.
Just catching up.
