How about emscripten then? https://github.com/kripken/emscripten

*Not that I would.

Well that seems to be a competitor. If you'd asked me the benefit of emscripten over this I wouldn't have known, but the question was about C.

The benefit over Emscripten is that LLJS makes it easier to mix JS and C-like code and skip the C/C++ tool chain. Of course, the drawback is that you miss out on all the LLVM optimizations.
