MCJIT is functional in trunk (and the 3.1 branch). While it doesn't include all the features of the old JIT quite yet, it's complete enough to pass all of JIT's execution tests on Linux and Mac OS X (no Windows yet). As for directions on how to enable it, follow the path of the "use-mcjit" flag passed to lli (in tools/lli/lli.cpp).

Good luck,

Eli
