[LLVMdev] compiling bitccode to executable binary/LLI

[Nipun Arora]

Hi,

I was able to figure out this one, by checking out profile.pl.
However, I am still interested in getting to know if there is anyway to
compile from bitcode to a normal executable?
Maybe I am missing something obvious... :P ?

Thanks
Nipun
