Tilde, My LLVM Alternative
>So one of the main problems you run into is that your elegant solution only works about 60-80% of the time. The rest of the time, you end up falling back onto near-unmaintainable, horribly inelegant kludges that end up having to exist
This is generally true, though for small compiler backends they have the luxury to straight up refuse to support such use cases. Take QBE and Cranelift for example, the former lacks x87 support [1], the latter doesn't support varargs[2]; which means either of them support the full x86-64 ABI for C99.

Oasis – a small, statically-linked Linux system
Michaelforney has also built croc [1], a qbe based C compiler. Really impressive!

Minias – A mini x86-64 assembler for fun and learning
A word of warning for those wondering: this is not for Intel syntax, despite referencing the Intel doc.
Minias can assemble itself
...but it's written in C and uses a parser generator? IMHO it feels a bit backwards --- and perhaps even a bit cheating if you're doing this for a "bootstrap pilgrimage" --- to write a lower-level tool in a higher-level language. On the other hand, the same author also links to a C compiler in C, without a parser generator: https://github.com/michaelforney/cproc
