I want to verify the claim that it builds the Linux kernel. It quickly runs into errors, but yeah, still pretty cool!
make O=/tmp/linux/x86 ARCH=x86_64 CC=/tmp/p/claudes-c-compiler/target/release/ccc -j30 defconfig all

They said it builds Linux 6.9, maybe you are trying to compile a newer version there?
git switch v6.9
The riscv build succeeded. For the x86-64 build I ran into
There are many other errors.
tinyconfig and allnoconfig have fewer errors.
Still very impressive.
They said that it wasn't able to support 16 bit real mode. Needs to call gcc for that.
I feel like I could have done this in a much shorter time, for much less tokens, but still very impressive!
