OK now let's not get too carried away. If that was even something 
Walter was considering he wouldn't be maintaining his own 
backend. I've come across a few code gen bugs, and they aren't 
fun to diagnose and fix especially with how poor quality the 
backend code is. Some 20 years of legacy ported from C over those 
years.
