Hello Andy.

> What's the purpose of this patch?  Given that lli has a command line option to enable mcjit use, I don't understand why you would need a build option to force its use.
As I concluded after conversations in IRC and ml the JIT seems to be 
deprecated soon. This option allows try to use MCJIT by default on 
buildbots without rewriting regressions. The main purpose is to fix JIT 
failures on clang-native-arm-cortex-a9 buildbot. Since JIT is broken for 
ARM.

Thanks,
Stepan.
