As LLVM is really a library it should behave like one and not just abort the whole process on an assert. Ideally we should be able to implement so set of options where an assert can cause one of a number of error mechanisms to be used from SIGABT to throwing and execption object containing line number file and the error message. This would require replacing asserts with say an llvm_assert( bool, char*) style preprocessor call that can generate the desired response, throw an error to be catched by a handler or doing a C++ throw, depending on...
