Hi,

I=92m working on an [e]Z8 port of LLVM. I=92m wondering if there=92s any re=
al use for the
bitness information from llvm::Triple? For example, what=92s the use of isA=
rch16bit?
Does anyone really care about it?

So far, I=92ve declared the z8 to be a 16 bit platform, but that=92s pretty=
 meaningless.
Internally, the Z8 and eZ8 has both 8 and 16 bit pointers, and any particul=
ar project
may use a mix of them.

Cheers, Kuba
