If you'd like a guinea pig for such a project, then you might consider the
LLVM fork I'm working on now.

I'm developing an LLVM backend that emits code for a classic, well-known
8-bit architecture.  As of this writing, the backend can assemble and
disassemble machine code for the architecture, including
fixups, relocations and relaxations.  It also emits ELF and object files
that interoperate with lld, llvm-objcopy, llvm-mc, etc.

I've tried to be a good boy and follow LLVM conventions, including forking
from master and rebasing my changes into sensible pieces.  I also run full
builds on each checkin for three platforms. But I'm not 100% sure I've done
the groundwork correctly.

Rather than post a link to my repo here, I'd appreciate the opportunity to
submit the repo into your process, and see if I can get it into your
incubator.

Thanks for your kind consideration.
