I guess not, it is just that the whole ecosystem is still on its infancy, and as usual C and C++ get the first class treatment.

Just as well in this instance, since uLisp is a C program.

Yeah, as always in compiler design, bootstraping versus depending on widespread systems programming languages, is an engineering decision.

uLisp could also take advantage of cross compiling, the author just chose another path that allowed him the focus on other areas instead.

What's preventing you from cross-compiling uLisp?

I guess not feeling like rewriting uLisp compiler/runtime in uLisp/Assembly, and not being the author,
