ELF Writer? How stable?
<li>PostRA scheduler improvements, ARM adoption (David Goodwin).</li>
2.7 supports the GDB 7.0 jit interfaces for debug info.

<li>LLVM has a new "EngineBuilder" class which makes it more obvious how to
set up and configure an ExecutionEngine (a JIT or interpreter).</li>
<li>The JIT now supports generating more than 16M of code.</li>
-<li>When configured with --with-oprofile, the JIT can now inform OProfile about
- JIT'd code, allowing OProfile to get line number and function name
- information for JIT'd functions.</li>

<li>When "libffi" is available, the LLVM interpreter now uses it, which supports
calling almost arbitrary external (natively compiled) functions.</li>

This is due to lack of LLVM support for <tt>setjmp</tt>/<tt>longjmp</tt> style
