If somebody were thinking of doing this (And I'm not saying I view
it as a good idea.) I'd suggest looking at the GNU compiler stuff.
As I remeber they have the front end of their compilers generate a
lisp like intermediate format that is then fed to a CPU specific
back end for optimization and compilation. Thus you would only have
to write a PHP compiler front end to generate the intermediate code,
and the gcc stuff would take care of the rest...
