The following issue tells that LLVM 9 is now supported :)
https://github.com/numba/llvmlite/issues/523

They haven't updated their documentation correctly.

PS: regarding lack of resources.
I have a spare computer and am willing to use that to do some testing for 
interesting packages like these. I hope it can help us keep a few more
packages that would otherwise be killed off.

PPS: an aside, but i was always curious where the term last rited came from.
I feel like I am part of the mafia when I use that term XD
