Yes, I don't mind the performance. the code we want to execute is really small ~ 500 lines.
I have posted in tinycc-devel, but if you have ideas, feel free to tell me :)

No,its a total GCC. -> http://rwiki.sciviews.org/doku.php?id=getting-started:installation:android

so yes, tinyCC seems to be my best bet at the moment.

an exploit could be tranmitted in source code and compiled and executed on a device. Increases flexibility and is suited to our transmission channel.

Probably they meant that you can install a Debian chroot on an android
device and use that - you can, but it if you're looking for something
small, that's not going to be it.

Out of interest, why do you need to put the compiler on the device anyway?
