One problem are all the used constants describing the target
architecture. We discussed multiple back-ends in one compiler already in
2002 and saw no advantage in it so we didn't try to solve it and we
decided to use the fpc -P ... solution which makes no difference for the
user.

For me, a much higher priority when doing rewrites might be
multithreading nf the compiler itself.
