The question is which line of work to focus on right now. All of these back-ends are interesting and worthwhile in the long run but we need to select a first one. There are basically 4 reasonable options:
* Enhance genc.py.
* Enhance genc.py using the C++ facility of function overloading for
simplicity
* Go for genllvm.py.
* genjava.py could be another option.
A question that springs to mind is: How much work do these various options share? (It seems like your typer.py is exactly this kind of work).
Also, I think that the benefits of function overloading are pretty minor for the cost of demanding a c++ compiler (although you could probably use cfront and tcc for that :).
