Why the smilies ;-) Parrot is a fine processor well suited for an optimizing compiler and with a reasonable architecture. Its not the first time that I'm thinking of such a hack.
... though it would need some extensions at both sides. Are some gcc people listening?

I'm not a "GCC person", but I do have an interest in this working. I did some exploratory work (mostly getting familiar with the GCC backend mechanism and with PASM), and quickly ran into what appeared to be fundamental roadblocks regarding gcc's predilection for generating stack-oriented assembly. Do you have some insights into what the most viable path for GCC--->pasm could be?
