backend=auto (now the default if backend is omitted) means to let the compiler
pick whatever backend it wants as the default. This is important for platforms

Also purge a bunch of redundant target=native.

to return a pointer from a merge, as these pointers must point to a
location at compile time. This adds a check for those cases when
returning a pointer from a block merge.
