<li>Convert the non-functional Skeleton target to become an abstract machine
target (choose some simple instructions, a register set, etc). This will

<li>Use the new Skeleton backend in the Interpreter: compile LLVM to Skeleton
target, and then interpret that code instead of LLVM. Performance win would
be the primary goal, as the number of registers would be a small constant
