Has anyone seriously considered using or adopting LLVM (http://llvm.org)?
It seems to provide just about everything on your diagram, and is also
quite efficient.

Even if it is not an option, I would really be interested to hear why not
and what is missing.  In particular, LLVM is mutable, and it's easier to
add things to it than to reinvent the whole thing.  :)

Thoughts?
