Hi,

I have a Z80 project in mind and would like to build a compiler for a
Z80.  I was wondering if modern backend techniques can be applied
successfully for these old CPU's, i.e. SSA.

I know GCC has backends for some older architectures, but these do weird
gymnastics such as implementing a virtual cpu in rtl and then lowering
further.

Thanks,
Luke.
