If I build a system, optimized for the architecture without room for backwards compatibility, containing all the software I want, what's an easy way to "clone" that build onto another machine with a different architecture? For instance, how can one move the definition of the "world" class to the new machine (bootstrapped) and then emerge all that software at once? Is there a better approach? (Sounds like Tal Peer's GLEP 21 proposal might just solve this, but how could it be done now?)
