I can imagine...

I would think for good AS/400 support, one would probably about need a 
custom VM written specifically for AS/400?...

AFAIK, the arch has a VM of a vaguely similar nature anyways, so I guess if 
the people at IBM really wanted they could potentially add native CIL 
support (like, reusing whatever JIT machinery and similar already exists in 
the arch, or doing bytecode-level recompilation, ...).

or such...
