Yes, Simon is looking into modifying the clang and llvm driver so that 
we can use it for end to end compilation.

We  have our own driver that I wrote in python. That is what we use now.
It's very easy to add new hosts/ports to it whereas it seems to be an 
overly complex process to understand and make changes to the clang 
driver. In the end, many things are hard coded into the clang front end 
that should be configurable without making source changes and this was 
very disturbing to me. I didn't have the bandwidth to sort all of that 
out and we urgently needed a gcc compatible driver that could work with 
normal open source make files.

Please have him send the ideas you're working on to the list. I wrote up a
very long list of the directions I think it should go a while back in a
conversation with the ARM folks (Mr. Malloy) as well.
