Perhaps because as far as I know the only code generator for C--
generates 32-bit Intel code. That doesn't provide much in the way of
portability.
There's rumours of other code genrators, but I haven't seen them yet.
Well, there is a portable byte-code interpreter written in C, but
that's very specifically not the point of C--.
