It is a pipe dream because there is no plan to restructure the 
compiler internals.

Until that happens a solid ARC implementation is infeasible (or 
rather much more expensive that the restructuring costs).

What is missing is basic software engineering. The boring aspect 
of programming, but basically a necessity if you care about cost 
and quality.
