Hi, Using a JIT engine on LLVM-C currently fails on SVN because the LLVMInitialize???Info is never called. The attached patch fixes this. BTW, would it be possible to include a simple LLVM-C test case, like http://npcontemplation.blogspot.com/2008/06/secret-of-llvm-c-bindings.html, into the test suite, and build/test regularly to prevent regressions like this?

Yes. This should probably be done as a unit tests, for example we already have some JIT unittests for the C++ API. Want to make a patch for it? - Daniel...

...LVMRunFunction, with requisite boxing of arguments and unboxing of return value. Is this the recommended route? Is the C API just lacking a getPointerToFunction equivalent? If so, I imagine it will be fairly straightforward to add one, which I’ll be happy to do.
