Well at only 1,607 lines of code:
an order of magnitude smaller
less dependencies
simpler build
less complete support for c99
No optimization phase
No preprocessor (nor need for one)
Doesn't support // line comments

Generally what you'd expect for a compiler optimized for bootstrapping bigger compilers
