This version supports Javascript, Lua, and Perl backends. C compiled to Lua runs at about one fifth of native speed (using Mike Pall's LuaJIT engine), while when compiled to JavaScript it runs at 1/80th of native speed (using SpiderMonkey). Perl's speed is rather less good. Not all of the C language is covered. Notable omissions are switch and varargs, but enough is there to be interesting.
