  Oh yes, indeed!  I'm also testing with both Fortrans, Cobol, Java, and
Ada, and liasing with the gcl and LLVM folks, to make sure it doesn't break
their stuff, and I heard about a bloke in Outer Mongolia who has a custom
port of gcc to a gnu-yurt-yak-abacus target, and I'm quite worried about
breaking his backend... (those Yaks can give you one hell of a kick!)


    cheers,
