llvm dev - Oct 2010 - [LLVMdev] Tutorial: Building a stack crawler in LLVM

As promised, here is a document describing how to build a stack crawler
using the garbage collection features of LLVM.

https://docs.google.com/document/pub?id=1-ws0KYo47S0CgqpwkjfWDBJ8wFhW_0UYKxPIJ0TyKrQ

I'm interested in any feedback, particularly on:

   - Explanations that aren't clear.
   - Spelling errors.
   - Technical errors.
   - Suggestions for ways in which things could be done better.

Very interesting reading indeed.
I don't have a lot of experience with GC's, but I am interesting to
follow the development of your crawler implementation. It would also be
very helpful if there were GC implementations in llvm for easy reuse and
programming language implementation.
