(this is just as a matter of curiosity)

we now have a couple distros using musl instead of (or along side of) glibc, so I got to wondering (got sidetracked by) if anyone had done a similar project with tcc replacing gcc?

Damn Small Linux has TCC on it, but I'm not sure if it's compiled with it.

You can probably configure Gentoo to compile all software that you install with TCC, but the initial "stage3"/"bootstrap" components are compiled with GCC.
