On which platform?
By which percentage of people that write C functions callable from
Matlab?

Back in DOS days, I don't remember lccwin among compilers that
Mathworks recognized as allowed to build MEX modules. In fact, I don't
remember existence of lccwin.
On Win64 the point is mute, because there exist an unified platform ABI
that everybody follow. But back in DOS and Win32 days official
Mathworks blessing was important.
