Hi Peter,

If the imports are for .o files and the bitcode is for before compilation
is complete? If it's post compilation then we'll have a .o file and can put
the metadata in as normal? Otherwise if we're using lazy compilation you'll
need to teach something how to read llvm-ir anyhow and so might as well not
bother storing it in an elf file?

I could easily be missing something of the compilation pipeline here.
