Hi, I find the C bindings for LLVM very useful, since they allow to invoke LLVM from a wider set of software tools (i.e. llvm-py uses it to export llvm to python). Unfortunately, it seems that llvm-c interface lacks major functionalities, e.g. getting a pointer to a jit-ted function. It is easy to write a small c++ wrapper to expose the functionality that one wants (llvm-py does it for the many
