And you can bet that they *still* won't listen.

This is why I want to make an open source (GPL) PIC32 toolkit. There are
already two good MIPS M4K C compilers (gcc and llvm/clang) so the hard
work is already done. The only thing that's missing is a simple little
tool to set PIC32 config bits in the hex file or figure out how to do it
with linker scripts. Could probably be done over the weekend if I'm made
aware that enough people are interested in this.

Microchip makes too good of a microcontroller to be shamed by their
crappy software. They can't even rip code off gcc properly.
