That would save a few steps (gfortran, dragonegg, llvm-as), so it's definitely worth trying. But note that technically speaking the current approach also uses

That would save a few steps (gfortran, dragonegg, llvm-as), so it's definitely worth trying. But note that technically speaking the current approach also uses the LLVM wasm backend (after doing all the above, it uses the LLVM wasm backend to compile LLVM IR to wasm).
