[LLVMdev] converting C++ to C question

Luke already answered one part of your question. Another part is that
you cannot run resulting C code on *any* platform: inside bytecode you
will have all sort of frontend-related stuff encoded implicitely: sizes
of integers, endian-related things, struct layout, etc. LLVM IR obtained
from C/C++ is not portable.
