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).

I tried to load my bitcode library using lli but it gave a new error now:

I also tried other variations of the call with the same result:
> $lli -entry-function="ISimEngine_GetVersion" -use-mcjit -mattr=+avx -mcpu=corei7-avx libengine.bc

I updated my program looking at lli.cpp and it also gave the same error 
as above. The info from lli --version is below:

Any pointers? I saw another thread "Trouble using the MCJIT: "Target 
does not support MC emission" error" but that didnt seem to have 
positive ending.
