How’s that GCC backend coming along? I could look it up, but I bet others would like to hear about it too.
It does, and rustc nostd already supports a lot of places cpython can't run, but the other way around is just non existent. Rustc can't and will likely never support ti dsps because they own the compiler and a long is 48bits. Dreamcast and other things with weird data sizes also are out.
