ex, my case: the origins of my C compiler, 13 years ago, started as hacking a JS-like parser/lang on top of XML-RPC and a W3C-DOM impl...
-
then, for whatever reason, in 2007 I decided to try to use /this/ code as the base for a C compiler; this original form imploded in 2009...

several partial rewrites later, I used it to compile stuff (Quake, ...) to a modded SH based ISA in an emu, and it "mostly works pretty ok".
