Wow!  This is awesome!   

It would be great if you could pack up all the executables and sample
source code, so we can make sure that we run them all.  Like a
regression test suite.

Yes, we are aware of that.  At some point we will implement those, it
would be particularly useful if someone can document the public
interfaces that the compilers require.
