Actually, I made the "LLVM JIT not complete" comment based on previous
emails with you where
you mentioned that it wasn't. You were probably referring to additional
optimizations that could be
implemented but I wasn't cognizant of that from our previous
discussion.  

I haven't looked closely enough at the JIT stuff yet to be able to make
a determination on my own
so I'll just have to take your word for it that its "feature complete"
.. until I find out otherwise :)
