On: Rewriting PHP

Second system syndrome?

You are reimplementing x86 - with no gain. Just use the actual x86 language. Or if you need multiple machines use C.

C is your new VM programming language.

[eru → ars]

GHC actually moved away from using C as a target language. They call it a dead end for whatever reason. (They seem to be going to C--.)
