Does GCC support any of these very simple µC architectures? I thought
anyhting supported by GCC tends to have rather powerful insturction sets
and plenty of registers aynway, so functions could be made reentrant by
default without any problems resulting.

While some link-time optimizations are commonly requested features for
SDCC, currently none are supported. In SDCC, even inter-procedural
optimizations within the same translation unit are not as powerful as
they should be.
Well, there always is a lot of work to do on SDCC, and there are only a
few volunteers with time to work on it. So SDCC developers priorize
(usually by personal preferences).

Still, when looking at the big picture, SDCC is doing quite well
compared to other compilers for the same architectures (see e.g.
http://www.colecovision.eu/stm8/compilers.shtml - comparison from early
2018, around the time of the SDCC 3.7.0 release - current SDCC is 3.8.0).
