No. But as a first pass you should still be able to skip that
step in V2. Romcc generates assembly as an intermediate step.
Since the point primarily is not a good E7501 port but to get
skeleton code for other Intel based ports. I don't think it
will matter.
Of course maintenance will be a major pain if the code is not
translated into C.
Oh, BTW. One of the things I forgot and was one of the
motivators of my last romcc release is that I can now pass parameters
in and out of romcc compiled code. So I should be able to clean
up the handling of BIST checking on the Opteron port. Currently
it is an ugly hack in assembly so I don't know if I have pushed
that to the public tree or not.
