It seems wrong that all the guys working on the L4 series OS have got it to
the point where they removed  ( most of ?) the asm and made it more portable
while the libs are going the other way and we are seeing more assembly.

The support lib would be written with BitC prototypes and type signature but
with two different bodies( one using that platforms assembly and another
using generic reference implementation). I do understand though that users
should be strongly discouraged from writing code in this way. Correctness
can be resolved by testing both the reference and assembly versions against
each other.
