In an attempt to optimize a functional language, I would like to
turn the stack based intermediate code into three address code.


Has anyone done similar conversions? Any references would be
greatly appreciated.

RPN code, then walk it to produce the quads. The "dragon book" says a lot
about generating and manipulating three address code. -John]
