Hmm... didn't the "Order of the Phoenix" come out recently ? ... and
Moz/Phoenix become FireBird ?... 

 From the "Informative" article linked, I found that this was a new
unified optimiser for .NET ie the text book style intermediate
code generation, optimisation and object code generation style. Doesn't
look very revolutionary to me (from what they are prepared to say).
All that can be interesting is that it'll be rule based , with a rule
set for each language/backend .

we need treecc's rule based stuff working soon ... so that we can also 
write rule based optimisers for all our compilers :-)

I wish we didn't have these many examples ... I would have settled for
one tabpage with different examples in each .
