Actually the ops=>C conversion was conceived to do exactly what's being
done now--to abstract out the body of the opcodes so that they could be
turned into a switch, or turned into generated machine code, or TIL'd. If
you're finding that this isn't working well it's a sign we need to change
things some so they will. (Better now than in six months...)
