I guess I could do some work on it. The questions are:
a) whether current API is to be extended or there are some reasons to
rebuild it fundamentally? IMO it looks fine, just new (wider) structures
and methods need to be added;
b) question above applied to the underlying JIT machinery;
c) is there any documentation about it or should I just rather look at
the source code?
