Does anyone know the history of Silicon Valley Software?

Their C compiler was available on Cromemco's Cromix Plus.

For no good reason, I've been wondering about the early history of C compilers that were not derived from Ritchie, Johnson, and Snyder at Bell.  Especially for x86.  Anyone have tales?Were any of those compilers ever used to port UNIX?
