>There's tutorials for doing so from O'Caml

[http://llvm.org/docs/tutorial/]

That looks really neat.  I had watched this*:
[http://vimeo.com/14313378] weeks back, subsequently flipping through
Appel's "Modern Compiler Implementation in ML", but ultimately
deciding the book to be too boring.  This, on the other hand, is
pretty inciting.

However, I still couldn't bring myself to deal with an additional
compiler as long as gcc+valgrind+qemu+vx32 continue to work.

I also wouldn't touch LLVM before all the opportunities for synergy
between lunix and Plan9 created by Golang are exhausted, and I think
there are lots of them.  (Is 9Go still unfinished even?)

*Not really recommended because it is too long, though it did turn me
on to the O'Caml language.
