Ken, it feels to me much closer to 50/50.  You actually wrote the code and
did the testing to get the FFI working.  Yes I helped you because it's my
framework and my architecture, but you learned it and made it work.  But
you *were* & *are* instrumental in realizing the ARMv8 VM.  Thank you.  In
fact I'm extending your structs-passed-in-registers code right now to cope
with HFAs (homogenous float arrays with four or fewer elements).  Once we
have the JIT fully working then I can take some more credit, but you've
supported me with crucial testing.

Great thanks to Eliot !!!
