The #DeSmetC compiler codebase is the hairiest code I've had the experience of hacking. K&R style, many global variables, short cryptic names, spooky action at a distance, the shotgun-surgery pattern for type handling splatted around everywhere, oh baby.
For all that, I managed to fix the codegen bug from the Github issues on the ~second day of working on the compiler... that's the beauty of a small codebase.
