I see. In summary, the answer to my question seems to be that llvm-c  
is not restricted on purpose (besides the exception of detached  
instructions), but functions are added on demand rather than trying to  
mirror the whole C++ API to C.

Thanks to everyone for your answers. This will help me finding the  
best way to continue my work.

Best regards,
  Christian
