My usual response when I see someone asking for a PD/Shareware C
compiler, if what they want is a single copy for someone to learn C
with, is to direct them toward a product called Mix C, from Mix
Software.  They run ads in postcard decks and in various computer
magazines, but essentially you get a basic compiler, not terribly quick
or fantastic in code generation, but which does support most of ANSI-C
and you get a terrific manual and tutorial book... for just under $25
including shipping and handling.
