[samurai](https://github.com/michaelforney/samurai) is c99, even easier, and doesn't rely on re2c at all. It builds with a Makefile (although I understand that since python is already included, building ninja with configure.py isn't a huge dealbreaker).

It would be very nice to have a meson reimplementation in C too, as meson is careful to ensure the language definition isn't tied to python. There is apparently some project out there which tried to take a stab at this... reportedly... but the meson developer didn't remember anything more than that when I asked.
