It compiles C code to Lua, Javascript or Perl5. And for LuaJIT it is
only half as slow as the gcc backend.
So this is a project to run C code dynamically at half-speed.
Wonder how fast a parrot backend would be, compared to our c99.
I have the vague idea that c99 would be faster just looking at the code.
