There are lots of tools issues that should be re-examined. There is many
cases where the tool execution is backwards to what generates the best
code. The compile link sequence where some key information about the
target ISA or processor architecture is not known until link time
sometimes forces the compiler to use a subset of the actual processors
ISA rather than take advantage of a specific member feature. The recent
discussion of the mill belt length is a good example of how important
this is. This type of compiler approach can encapsulate the specific
processor variations and make application wide optimizations with
relative ease.

Switching this around so the compiler is focused on creation code for a
well defined target rarely is anything more than including a device
specific header file in the application. (as a side effect eliminating
the link step)

What's wrong with a single set of sources that defines an application,
no command line options or linker scripts just an application including
the definition of the target, files and libraries it needs. Compilation
is both faster by many factors and there is a simple self contained
project that can be easily re-created after a decade or more.

(The oldest project we have helped customers re-create in the last year
was archived  by the customer in 1988, we have copies of every released
tool set. Start to recreating an identical HEX file < 2 hours from
receiving the customer support request email)

The brouhaha about "@" and C is really more about having supporting
syntax to be able to explain what is desired without needing an
indirect definition. That is my real argument not that it can't be done.
Most languages have some way to access the underlying machine, fewer of
these languages do so in a simple clean way.

Don I am not arguing to create a more complex world but in the area of
language design why are many tool sets burdened with solutions to the
computer limitations of 1980?

It is a real eyeopener to spend some time with some of the current crop
of programmers who are using what many of us would consider a toy
language to actually achieve some pretty remarkable results. It took me
a long time to respect what they are doing.
