If you don't mind some quite dirty hacking (and if you mind it you
shouldn't probably use tcc), I also believe that you can have two
instances in the same address space by using the first one to compile
another one (or many others) and relocating them to different addresses.
Then each of them is a completely independent compiler with independent
state. Of course this means that you need tcc's source code at runtime.
Otherwise there is the old trick of just opening a pipe, forking and
then sending back the result.

Have fun, Giovanni.
