[LLVMdev] ORC and relocations

[Lang Hames]

Hi Eugene,

Skipping the call to resolveRelocations would disable many (if not all)
internal relocations too. Is that the desired behavior?

At that point there's not much left for RuntimeDyld (or the
ObjectLinkingLayer) to do. Would something like a NoopLinkingLayer be a
workable solution?

Cheers,
Lang.
