Hi Che-Liang,

I appreciate that you're doing this one small patch at a time. That's 
really the right approach, but in this case we have two competing 
backends for a PTX target. Is there any way we could see the full source 
to yours so we can take a look and decide whether we want to invest time 
in reviewing yours, or Helge's or both?
