On Ivoras'FreeBSD page, ``What's cooking for FreeBSD 8''

http://ivoras.sharanet.org/freebsd/freebsd8.html

LLVM site shows it's something like precompiler+runtime compiling.

will it be used that way, or as usual compiler?

the first way sound really good (single binary for every arch, and optimized at runtime) but i think it will need HUGE change in system.

second would be just a replacement


one can read about the possible substitution of GCC by LLVM (among other candidates). Under the assumption that LLVM is selected, would this mean that FreeBSD will somehow integrate the OCaml compiler?

Of course OCaml is already in the ports, but if it is somehow integrated in the base system, there is serious opportunities to write system tools with this language.
