Chip, This is really great to see! The whole continuations/regalloc thing is being addressed! It's great to see this kind of progress. Implementing this kind of register allocator could be tricky, for a number of reasons, but it's great that there is a direction now. OTOH, a minimally functional version of this architecture can be created by, as you say, just by register renumbering. Anything beyond that is premature optimization, at this point. Thanks for moving on this, and Kudos to you and Leo! Bill
