Dogfooding - at acmet's Tools BU

We built and RENOVATED compilers at the Tools BU.

But we never used them.

One of the other BUs did applications for the same customer for whom we had built - and were maintaining - a compiler. Unfortunately, the applications were for processors other than the target of the compiler.

We were not eating the dog-food we were making. If we had, our tools team would have been the better for it.
