That was exactly my experience with them when I was looking for a PIC C
compiler about ten years ago. People were talking about how impressively
quickly they react to bug reports and release a fixed version. But at that
rate... ?!?  I figured that if they create (impressively quickly) hundred
releases a year, the chances that the compiler I'm using at any given point
in time is having serious bugs is /very/ high -- after all, it still
contains all the bugs that will be fixed in the next couple hundred
releases :)

Ended up with HiTech. Had to find a few bugs for them, but it's been many
years since anything serious happened. The last one was an address error in
a processor include file, a year ago.
