We definitelly need:

- Compound statements in expressions
- typeof()
- C99 designators
- some way to request linkonce sections
- some other gcc attributes, like (constructor)

Last time I checked LCC didn't have these extensions.
In this case it makes little sense porting lwc.

Apart from that it would be trivial porting lwc to windows.
Just some filesystems hacks, invoking cpp hacks, etc
