Can you possibly avoid that? There are many microcontrollers that GCC
has back ends for, so you could use GNAT. E.g. I think GNAT for the AVR
is a thing. Of course even at the low end, ARM is everywhere now, and
that is even easier.
Besides the approaches other people have mentioned, I don't know if
there are any really large obstacles to targeting GCC to the 8051, or to
some kind of VM that the 8051 can simulate, since you don't care about
performance. If you do care about performance, you won't be using an
8051 in the first place ;-).
