That would require an ARM inline assembler in TinyCC.
IIRC the one I wrote 1.5 years ago 'only' needs asm constraint handling
and parameter substitution to be complete. I posted to the list about the
difficulties
( http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/tinycc-devel/2005-04/msg00015.html )
but got no reply. Haven't touched the code since then.

Only the division functions in libtcc1.c use x86 asm code.
An ARM version of libtcc1 has been sitting on my homepage for about 3
years: http://www.stud.uni-hannover.de/~daniel/tcc/
