I discovered it a few years ago. My personal interest is in the
portable C back end, so I can use the g++ compiler front end and send
the output through CodeWarrior or MPW compilers,

Yes, actually, I was looking at it just the other day. I couldn't get it to
build on x86-64, but I talked to some of the developers over in their IRC
channel, and they told me that this would be forthcoming

It seems to be making a lot of progress lately with the support of Apple
(which is using LLVM for its own purposes in Mac OS X). Is there anything
there Parrot can steal? Would it make sense for Parrot to target LLVM
bytecode and let LLVM do
