[LLVMdev] How start with LLVM garbage collector?

[Pedro Ferreira]

Afaik, llvm does not have a garbage collector of its own, you simply
link in a garbage collector that will hook into the "llvm_gc_*" function
calls. LDC uses Tango's garbage collection by linking malloc's and the
sorts to Tango's GC subsystem.
