   Hmm, not sure about this year, but looking at the short-term future of   
   compilation as a computerscience/engineering activity, I'd expect that   
   we'd see a continuation of development effort in back-ends over the next   
   few years - nothing radical perhaps, but ongoing work on re-targeting   
   compilers for processors/devices as they seemingly routinely enter the   
   market.
