notes on varargs

[Samuel Audet]

Yes, I remember those, but they are all pretty vague. I see the words 
"JIT" and "compiler" mentioned everywhere. What about inserting 
Clang/LLVM into the "JIT compiler"? That's basically what Sulong is 
doing. It appears to working out well, it can call system functions too, 
and does not seem to contradict any of those documents. Why isn't this 
approach being considered by Panama?
