Does the compiler allow the changing of register values on the Processor. Ie: Changing the clock multiplier???

see http://mbed.org/users/no2chem/notebook/mbed-clock-control--benchmarks/

and the compiler doesn't really have to do with changing 'register values on the processor'... it just emits instructions... which usually have to operate on registers...

Yes!  Remember that the mbed compiler the *real* Keil C/C++ compiler.   The folks at mbed were nice enough to provide some  classes for initializing/using the hardware.  You can still open the peripheral manuals, etc and program things as you would any other microcontroller.
