    I'm pretty sure writing the C compiler in random languages is about as ubiquitous as getting Doom to run on everything with a microcontroller. Python JavaScript Rust

    People do write "hobby" compilers for fun (like https://github.com/ShivamSarodia/ShivyC - C compiler written in Python), but if this were a serious concern, it would absolutely take a serious research effort to re-write your compiler from scratch. There are absolutely people who can do this and would probably think it's a good time, so the order of operations there would be start a foundation --> GoFundMe --> hire those guys --> produce a new-generation trusted compiler.
