We've been using IRBuilder since 2.7, are now on 3.2, and upgrading with each release has been rather easy - not trivial, but not at all difficult.  Using IRBuilder seems to be the simplest and most straightforward mechanism, and gives you the a great deal of control over what's fed to the optimizers.
