Ok, so this is an LLVM->LLVM pass?

I'm not sure, this is too vauge to give you specific directions.  Note 
that LLC isn't set up to dynamically load passes.  Is there any reason you 
can't use 'opt -yourpass | llc'?  If you really have to have it in llc, 
you can modify the C backend's CTargetMachine::addPassesToEmitFile method 
to include your pass.
