Has anyone looked at porting chicken to a front end for LLVM?
An interesting idea. AFAIK LLVM does semantically pretty much
provide everything C (gcc) provides. Whether it really is worth
the effort is another thing, of course. For example, how much
performance is to be gained. One approach to test this might be
to take a small benchmark, and hand-translate the chicken
output to LLVM.
cheers,
