I would be interested in knowing whether it would be feasible to create DSP backends for FPC. I recently had the experience of using a TMS320C26 which probably has to be programmed in assembler due to the limits of the instruction set. But I hear newer DSPs use instruction sets geared alot more towards highlevel compilers

This IMO would require new language elements, for parallel/vector operations, dedicated libraries, or *very* clever optimizers. A general-purpose language like Pascal is not suited for coding DSP operations.
