Subject: ELLCC has self hosted.
The clang/LLVM based ELLCC project (http://ellcc.org), after having
reached a huge milestone (http://ellcc.org/blog/?p=231) has now
successfully compiled itself.
The steps were:
1. Use gcc to build the compiler with Linux standard libraries.
2. Use ecc to build itself with libc++, libc++ABI, libunwind, musl, and
compiler-rt
3. Use the newly built compiler to build itself again.
One interesting side note: The compiler was 12MB smaller after it built
itself.

Even more interesting, it was compiled statically. No dynamic libraries
needed:

That is very cool.
