Re:Cranelift, Part 3: Correctness in Register Allocation by danobi on Friday March 19, 2021 @10:17PM (#26520212)
Both parts (compiler backends & fuzzing) are immensely complicated stuff on their own. I can only imagine the trickery and head scratching that comes with the combination.

I’ve worked on simpler approximations of both [0][1] before and can attest even the simple parts are hard to get working reliably.
