As I understand it the eval version is only good for 4K of code. In my
project I am the only developer, so I want to know if there is a good
reason to spend the money on the full version of Keil.

It works.
It is the best 8051 compiler available.
It has a very good simulator/debugger
It has lots of support

There is a lot more to 8051 variants than just changing the header
files.

Why would you want to use SDCC whey you already have a perfectly good
compiler. You don't get better than the Keil for 8051.
