eCos has a number of dependencies on the GNU tools, as described in
http://sourceware.cygnus.com/ecos/faq.html#porting_compiler
I have no experience with the diab compiler so do not know whether or
not it provides comparable functionality. The same applies to other
proprietary tools.

In addition the eCos maintainers may add further dependencies on the
GNU tools at any time, whenever appropriate. Hence even if you manage
to get the current release of eCos working with some other compiler,
this could break at any time.
