Ah, but why bother? There are now only two commercially important
microprocessor architectures; demented-warped-x86 on pretty much all
desktop machines and ARM on pretty much all PDA/phone/embedded
devices. Obviously the logial next translator backend for exupery is
for ARM. Who knows. one day I might even get time to attack it.
