[LLVMdev] Any idea on translate x86 assembly to LLVM IR?

[Evan Cheng]

This is a hard problem. Machine assembly is (mostly) untyped. You also  
have to reconstruct CFG, translate it back to SSA form. Not to mention  
how do you translate instructions where there is no equivalent llvm  
instruction.
