[Micah Villmow]

It should just be enough to specify the data layout string.

Awesome!  What will the requirements be for the target?  Is it sufficient to just override getPointerTy and add appropriate data layout strings, or will more hooks be needed?

I'm actively working on this. I think I have most of the target independent parts ready that I'm gradually sending through review. I haven't looked at what needs to be done in SelectionDAG yet.
