There are plenty of free C compilers for Windows: mingw, Borland,
lcc-win32. lcc-win32 even comes with an IDE.

If you dig long enough on the Microsoft site, you can (at least you
could at one time) even download a commandline version of the MS
compiler. AFAIK the commandline tools of the .NET SDK are also available
at no charge.

Apart from that, many people might fear that hacking the internals of a
COM implementation might make their head explode.
