It should be trivial to take the _currently_ generated GCC code for
all the architectures QEMU is commonly built on, and just distribute
that code with the QEMU source.

Then it would be independent of future changes to GCC.

I understand a handwritten backend is already being written.  But
until a proper one is done, wouldn't that serve as a useful stopgap?
