Yes!, particularly if it is in a domain that LLVM isn't known to handle
well currently. I'd suggest ocaml/haskell or python/ruby as
representatives of the functional and scripting language communities. If
you were to do a frontend port, I'd strongly suggest starting from the
existing compiler (e.g. the python bytecode compiler), modifying it to
emit LLVM code.
