How do you define "pure C code"?  printf is pure (ANSI) C, no?

And were did you get that that a compiler should be able to produce
runnable binaries from such "pure C" without calling into any library
functions?

Also, what is "pure machine code"?  With neither input nor output it
couldn't do anything but waste instruction cycles.
