I think so, too! I'm not sure I'll have time to look at it (or that my
comments would be very helpful at this point), but if we end up with
wasm support in GCC, that would be great.

It has been a long time, but it did include both asmjs and
wasm-as-it-was-back-then support. However, I think WebAssembly has
changed a lot and the new port will probably look very different! So my
advice is to look at this new work rather than the "wasm" project on
GitHub (which has been updated more recently, but it's still been a few
years...)

Thanks for working on this!
