Thinking that any c compiler would do the job, I tried to use tcc with ikiwiki, as explicitely allowed by the Debian package dependencies.
I installed `tcc` and `libc6-dev` (for `libcrt1`). The wrapper compilation was OK, but the wrapper fails to run correctly and dies with
usage: ikiwiki [options] source dest
ikiwiki --setup configfile
Everything works fine with gcc.
versions: Debian lenny + backports
