-instruction selector.  Watch this space for more news coming soon!
+This directory houses a 32-bit SPARC V8 backend employing a expander-based
+instruction selector.  It is not yet functionally complete.  Watch
+this space for more news coming soon!
 
 To-do
 -----
 
-* support 64-bit arguments to functions
+* support 64-bit (double FP, long, ulong) arguments to functions
+* support functions with more than 6 args
 * support setcc on longs
 * support basic binary operations on longs
-* support cast bool, int to long
-* support sub, setcc constant expressions
+* support casting <=32-bit integers, bools to long
+* support casting 64-bit integers to FP types
