This seems very painful. I'm not familiar with programming these things, but wouldn't most programmers work on, say, C code, and then compile it for the platform?

Bit of googling came across this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cc65

The picture of this device has changed significantly though. This isn't a random bit of firmware made by someone for fun and running on the available hardware, which is what I originally thought might be a possibility. This is a specific platform which seems to have some very specific design choices. Instead of using the easy option of a 64-bit binary architecture, it is using 16 digit BCD, with a co-processor to accelerate these calculations. Yes the TVM software re-written, but this is basically a whole new calculator platform. It could be quite a nice 12c revision if we got some good TVM solving code in there.
