I am a long-time programmer, new to the IBM/clone world.  I need a C
compiler for my new endeavor.  I want to be able to compile ANSI C,
and preferably also traditional C.  Qualities I want in priority
order:
	1) Complete and bug-free
	2) compiles most sources (i.e. if there are dialects, or
		library oddities, I want to have as much coverage
		as possible).
	3) handles traditional C
	4) generates fast code
	5) compiles fast

Go ahead, fill my mailbox.

While you're at it, I see this ad for a compiler called Power C, for
about $20.00.  Anybody know about this thing, and is it any good?
