What if it's not Sys-V? What if I want Javascript (aka emscripten)? My use case is game development, I could have a need to ship to wide variety of platforms (for some you don't even have publicly available specs, like PS3), and this platforms only provide C/C++ compilers. Why Myrddin compiler take a burden of supporting all C ABI's out there by implementing it's own asm code generation? Easier way out code be just generating higher level code like C or LLVM IR, and using libffi to implement FFI. I would love languages like Myrddin to succeed, but let's be pragmatic, it is nearly impossible to support asm code generation with all C ABI's without having a full time team working on it. It is a huge time investment (not even speaking of financial investment connected to it). So I find it's hard for languages to get traction because they keep getting stuck inside Sys-V/Windows realm :( While something that compiles to C somehow magically just-work on everything, even web.
