It's possible that this has changed, reviving the LLVM backend -(or writing new from scratch) for static compilation would be a good project. - -(On the other hand, just generating C code and using clang might be enough. -The issue with that is the so-called "asmgcc GC root finder", which has tons -of issues of this own. In my opinion (arigo), it would be definitely a -better project to try to optimize the alternative, the "shadowstack" GC root -finder, which is nicely portable.
