"wouldn't be surprised if Super Mario All-Stars ... used or referenced the NES source code."
Apparently, people discovered, in the code of the Super Mario Bros. 3 portion of All-Stars, unused levels that were present in the original SMB3, also unused. So, it was likely a direct port with little modification.

Like Sega where the Mega Drive can play Master System games via an adapter, the SNES was going to have backwards compatibility with the NES (it had an evolved version of the processor). Yet Nintendo decided to pull out due to costs. There were a few SNES games though that were NES ports (e.g. Wrecking Crew) and wouldn't be surprised if Super Mario All-Stars and BSX Zelda used or referenced the NES source code.

Which is why this exists really.
