We'll try :-)  I wrote a quick x86 port for it just to see how 
difficult it was, and it took almost a day before it could compile
simple programs.  I need a reasonable test suite to be able to do
a real port, though, and some of the internals must be changed so
that correct optimizations can be done.  Currently it just fixes the
trivial stuff.
