I.e., on PowerPC (maybe also SPARC).  All other architectures are
register-starved when you use gcc, as I learned in my experiments with
stack caching.  I could not even use two registers for the stack cache
on Alpha or AMD64 (or any other architecture I tried except PowerPC)
without spilling some important virtual machine register.

I think it's more cost-effective if we invest that effort into the
native-code compiler.

Cool.  Now for the benchmark from
