The main thing I've been pushing towards is a ppc64 port. Forsyth is
working on the compiler now, once that is done we can see about
getting it running on G5s and IBM pBlades (and potentially Cell). Not
sure if anyone is working on a ppc32 port -- I did see some mention of
going after an iMac port on a CMU prof's page
(http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~412/projects/9mac/) and others (newsham?) have
talked about it before.
