@thatbrickster @ceooffuggy @r000t I think that would be a pretty dumb move, not that LLVM doesn't have it's flaws but compiler backends are a pretty big ordeal, in fact one of the reasons the gcc-rust project exists is because gcc still supports more architectures than LLVM.
Plus you'd need to be careful to not generate bad code while still providing a good level of optimisation (after all idiomatic Rust is a bit known for sometimes having better performance than idiomatic C).
