Is there any intention to look at other processors?  x86-64 tends to
be very aggressively out-of-order, which reduces the need for
scheduling to reduce the effects of latency.  Of course I'm interested
in AArch64, but it has more registers so tends to spill less; perhaps
ARM-32 would be an interesting candidate.
