I will not be using llc, it will all be through the C++ API.  I looked
through the code a bit, but could not see any real direct way to turn
on tall-calls, the only thing I could really find was a single global
(yes, a global... ugh...) that many things referenced, if I set that
then things should use tail-call versions of things.

What about this indirect bug, is anyone working on it?  I would try,
but I am quite certain I do not yet have the LLVM internals knowledge
to (or even where to look).
