   I also plan to add direct block chaining. I will try to make it portable 
   by using the 'goto *' gcc extension, but I don't know yet if it will 
   work on every CPU.

This should be OK, but we may run into issues on platforms that
have non-trivial epilogue/prologue in the code that they output.
I think on the most complex cpu in this area (Sparc :-) we should
be OK.
