I am personally (every now and then) working on an FPC backend that  
emits llvm code. Llvm has been designed from the ground up to take  
some form of intermediate code as input and as a generic backend for  
other compilers. It's still quite young as a project and does not yet  
support as many targets as gcc, but it is evolving and improving very  
quickly.

See http://llvm.org for more info.
