tcc:
+ VERY quickly produces code
+ libtcc
+ useable as a scripting language...
+ compatybility with standards
+ compatybility with some gcc extensions
+ licence :)
+ portabilyty (easy to adapt to some new system/hardware)
- code works but it's not so very optimized
- to see generated assembly U need some external utils like objdump

gcc:
+ U have this mostly everywhere under almost every distribution of some
free systems
+ gazylions of already supported architectures...
+ compatybility with standards and all gcc extensions :)
+ compiles linux kernel without source code modyfication :)
+ supporting diffrend languages (java, c++ and others)
+ well documented
- works so sloooowly
- generated x86 code not wery optimized... (look at code generated by visual c 
4 comparsion)

something else?
