The original C compilers were written on and for the PDP-11!
You can find one such in the DECUS library. Whitesmiths will
sell you another, plus a Pascal pre-processor: this should
accept a more modern version of C. Other companies should
have PDP-11 versions: this w a s the original base for Unix,
once it was written in C! (The PDP-7 versions, memory tells
me, were largely assembly code.)
