The WDC's cross compilers claim to be ANSI compliant.

cc65 most certainly isn't, lacking floating point types, bit fields,
and the ability to pass structures to functions.

Both the 'native' systems have limitations, being k&r syntax and lack
of some features. The most noticable issue is the lack of function
prototypes, but once that's taken care of the only other thing I've
found necessary when getting something to build was throwing in a
#DEFINE for void* (or replacing all occurances of it with char*)
