During Google Summer of Code 2007 I was working on llvm-qemu, which
translates from ARM machine code to LLVM IR (at basic block level)
and via the LLVM JIT to x86 machine code. All source
architectures supported by qemu (x86, x86-64, ARM, SPARC, PowerPC, MIPS, m68k)
can be translated to LLVM IR this
way (e.g. adding support for x86 to llvm-qemu should be almost trivial).

You can find llvm-qemu at
http://code.google.com/p/llvm-qemu/
