Agreed.


On another note: If you want to play with inline-threading, please try
porting the folloowing interpreter to ARM:
http://www-sor.inria.fr/~piumarta/pldi98/vm.c

In fact, you might want to read the paper:
http://www-sor.inria.fr/~piumarta/pldi98/
http://www-sor.inria.fr/~piumarta/pldi98/paper.ps.gz

If you can get it to work, it should give us the base framework to get
SableVM's inline-threaded engine to work on ARM.

Have fun!

Etienne
