Oh, I see. No, not yet, I think the C compilers are complex enough to be difficult to compile with emscripten. I have no evidence for that, but I know they are incredibly complex.

The shorter path is something like LLVM, but we could see something like a compiler all in js that can take a large subset of C and compile it.
