No surprise! Yes, of course this is easy if you translate to C. But let's
have an example of implementing this where you do NOT translate into C.
I don't for a moment accept that this is technically reasonable or feasible.
It would be like requiring the acceptance of machine language inserts for
the IBM 370 on all targets.
