Neat stuff. I used to work at Sun in the solaris kernel group, the SPARC
architecture is quite elegant. I wonder if we can find an interesting
use for the register windows in a haskell compiler. Many compilers for
non c-like languages (such as boquist's one that jhc is based on (in
spirit, if not code)) just ignore the windows and treat the architecture
as having a flat 32 register file.
