any user friendly 8051 cross compiler

First I have no idea what you mean by "user friendly", taking the source an producing an object is not a matter of user friendliness", but a computer operation.

Second, the one and only concern that should matter with a compiler is "does it produce correct and efficient results". Unless that is answered with a resonding "YES" nothing else matters.

I know that in the PC world the "programmers convenience" is supposed to be more important than the efficiency of the code, fortunately that is not true in small embedded although many try to make it so.
