The interesting aspect of NaCl is that it does have a JIT compiler API...
(Mono is using it already). This means, it would be possible to port Cog to
NaCl *and* have all the speed...
Getting the stack interpreter to run should be even simpler (recompile.. plus
implementing I/O via the NaCl APIs , of course).

Very interesting direction, too! The most challenging question is if
it's possible to somehow "JIT" code... and how fast that then can be.
