> a plan to transition to it for C compilation
replyThat's not planned AFAIK (see https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/16269). `translate-c` is really only intended for header translation, not C source code.
See https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/20875 for the (not fully fleshed out yet) plans around C compilation.
Zig already uses arocc! https://codeberg.org/ziglang/zig/src/branch/master/lib/compi...
replyThat's there for translate-c, it's not used for compiling C code
