I think compiler can and should be host independent, like LLVM.
It is. Changes to code generation depending on the host are considered
to be serious bugs, and have been long before LLVM existed.
Perhaps 徐持恒 meant target independent, in the sense that with LLVM the choice
of target is made at run-time, and not when building LLVM [*]. Just a guess
though.
Ciao,

[*] It is possible to choose which targets to build when configuring LLVM.
If only one is chosen then of course that's the only one that can be chosen
at run-time.
