To-do
-----
-* support calling functions with more than 6 args
-* support 64-bit integer (long, ulong) arguments to functions
- - use libc procedures instead of open-coding for:
- __div64 __mul64 __rem64 __udiv64 __umul64 __urem64
-* support setcc on longs
-* support basic binary operations on longs
-* support casting <=32-bit integers, bools to long
+* support shifts on longs
* support casting 64-bit integers to FP types
-* support varargs intrinsics (va_start et al.)
+* support FP rem
+* directly support select instructions
