I am not this retarded, Ingo.
You're mistaking 'clang' the new C family of languages compiler which
is built on top of LLVM and is indeed a project under the llvm.org
umbrella, with LLVM the compiler infrastructure itself, which can be
used as a back-end to the GCC front-ends. In contrast to 'clang',
'llvm-g++4x' is 100% complete and naturally able to emit LLVM bitcode,
and the linker can mix bitcode objects and nativelly compiled objects
freely, producing a native image in the end.
I'm not taking offense at your tone just because you seem to think
that LLVM is some "interesting technology that will spin on its wheels
for at least 4 years more before really going anywhere" rather than
*the* cutting-edge free compilation /framework/ with a BSD license for
an added bonus.
I urge you to have a better-than-cursory look at www.llvm.org and its
hosted subprojects and see for yourself what LLVM is really capable
of. Of special interest to you as a systems programmer: http://klee.llvm.org
. Let's just say that it found fatal bugs present for the past 15
years on GNU coreutils, something that not even Coverity managed to.
Enjoy.
