just to demonstrate how it will work, i included here implementation
of unboxed arrays. as you can see, it just based on several *Unboxed
operations plus freeze/thaw. for boxed arrays, all will be the same -
only another datatypes and operation names

BZ> all other higher-level machinery can be made compiler-independent

as you can see, it's FULL implementation of Array classes just with
~100 lines of code
