Theoretically, if Mill isn't vaporware, its plan is to distribute binaries in a format independent of certain hardware implementation details, and have a "specializer" in the BIOS or kernel to compile from the generic instruction set to the machine-specific instruction set on demand, reordering operations and grouping them into instructions, inserting delays, and spilling belt (register) contents to on-chip RAM where necessary.
Essentially, the idea is to move all the CISC stuff out to software, and do VLIW internally. That could possibly help?
