I think the key to being able to conveniently write assembly code lies
in a really bitching macro facility, with the general approach being
'define whatever wierd constructs using the macro expander, but,
because YOU are supplying the underlying code, you can make it as
efficient as you want'.  Now, the program is not necessarily
non-portable, just the macro code.  Since most of the macro routines
are not too complex when singled out, it's easier to rewrite.
