Ok, I'll download and see the code.
Also, may be you can help me before I'll see the code.
In general, I wish to make kiev compiler ( http://forestro.com/kiev/ )
to have a egcs frontend mode. The idea is not simply make bytecode
and feed egcs with it. Kiev compiler has many nice (I think ;-) ) features
which do not fit JVM, or implementation with JVM bytecode restrictions
is very slow.
So, I need to connect to compiler before I've produced the bytecode,
i.e. right after AST completed, and... What's then? I expect to
find answers from your code and any comments are welcome ;-)
