This is one of the important pieces of the X86 backend for Gambit that I have been working on recently.  I also have an ARM assembler in the works, but it is not in this release.

I look forward to using a Gambit that is capable of native, incremental, in-RAM compilation.

I hope you plan to retain the C backend indefinitely as well. We're using Gambit for some iOS products, and Apple will not allow an in-RAM compiler to work on iOS, so we will perforce have to depend upon the C backend for iOS products.
