Note that LCC is not "open source software" in the sense defined by
www.opensource.org; selling derivative works is not permitted, in general,
without buying a separate license from Addison-Wesley.

But if you do want to port LCC to target IL, it might be a good idea
to check to see if anyone has done this already, e.g. by asking in
comp.compilers.lcc.
