This is an x86 (IA-32) port of the "classic" old BCPL compiler (around
1980) from the Tripos Research Group at Cambridge University.
-As a real, working computer language implementation, that can be studied,
-modified, and played with, this old BCPL compiler has a good deal to
-recommend it. The compiler frontend consists of only about 2000 lines
-of BCPL code, and (as supplied here) compiles to a static (fully-linked)
-x86 binary that is less than 36000 bytes in size.

x86_64 note: obcpl doesn't require multilib on Slackware64. It only
