I heard that when Borland brought out Kylix they used a new code generator to
make it easier to implement non-x86 targets. Unfortunately since then the
number of commercially-viable architectures has dropped dramatically, largely
due to MS's overwhelming interest in Intel and AMD processors. If Borland had
put everything they had into porting Kylix to POWER or SPARC- and got the
relevant hardware vendors interested- they might have carved themselves a nice
niche, as it it it's probably too late.
