5This directory houses a 32-bit SPARC V8 backend employing a expander-based
6instruction selector.  It is not yet functionally complete.  Watch

22* support calling functions with more than 6 args
23* support 64-bit integer (long, ulong) arguments to functions
24  - use libc procedures instead of open-coding for:
25    __div64 __mul64 __rem64 __udiv64 __umul64 __urem64
26* support setcc on longs
27* support basic binary operations on longs
28* support casting <=32-bit integers, bools to long
29* support casting 64-bit integers to FP types
