[LLVMdev] Two languages in the same IR

Hey,

we are intermixing LLVM IR generated from C code with IR generated from 
our custom RenderMan frontend. I am not sure whether this is relevant 
for you, but in our restricted setting (the C code does not change 
frequently and we have full control at link time) this works flawless.

Best,
Ralf
