The OCaml Journal has published around 40 articles now. The most popular and 
third most popular articles are both about LLVM. So I don't think it is 
correct to say that "functional language people don't like LLVM". Indeed, I 
thought I was a kook for trying to write a compiler for a functional language 
using LLVM until I mentioned it to the OCaml community and half a dozen 
people stepped forward with their own alternatives. :-)
