Well, I've done one backend file..  For anyone interested in doing other
files, you should probably get rid of all static function declarations
(where the function is defined before being used), and unnecessary casts
such as from/to void * pointers and between enum and int types.  ie. you
can do a better job than just running scripts to get rid of PARAMS, VA*,
PTR macros.

All targets without a listed maintainer, perhaps?  :-)
