That doesn't sound like a bad idea.  Inline assembly &stuff is
compiler-specific anyway.  However, the big question is can we
create drivers for other OSes in GCC ?  I guess it should be
possible to compile some files in one compiler and others in 
another one and then link them, but somebody with experience with 
an OS such as Windows will need to correct me here, if I'm wrong.
