Sun compilers are the best there

  PowerPC

For PowerPc IBM's compiler is the best. It has a lot of really specific
options for the processor, and gcc is awful. I never could compile 
really big programs without hitting a code generation bug in that
platform (AIX). I compiled a Database code in C++ and the only compiler
that compiled all the code was IBM's. Maybe under linux gcc is
better. In any case it can probably compile the kernel without
getting into a bug.

and MIPS,

MIPS I do not know. Probably gcc is good enough for that
platform.

I think you named all, or almost all.
