That's a very good idea. I've also started to give a look at what has been
done in Open64, hoping that at least I could have grabbed the library. My
glance at the code however didn't give any interesting hint. I'll
subscribe at some point their development mailing list and ask specific
questions on the state of their implementation. I could also propose them
to share some common part of the work (libraries and environment variables
- for the latter at leat as far as Linux is concerned- being the obvious
target).
