Using an other ISA than x86 is something that prevents this compiler from being used for other chips.
The intermediate representation on which these optimizations are made is probably not related to x86.
Also, such compilers usually use models of machine resources and latencies to perform better scheduling.
But latency and resource models are micro-architecture dependent, so using it on a chip with the same architecture but different micro-architecture would produce non-optimal scheduling
