I was more thinking about: compile to native using Lightning (ignoring
its JIT focus), or to bytecodes if needed.  That is, we would have a
(run-time) retargetable compiler that can either generate native code
via Lightning, or bytecodes for a VM.  I don't think bytecodes that
are tuned for performance are a good intermediate language.
