[LLVMdev] can an alias Value be created?

[edA-qa mort-ora-y]

I'm in a situation where my code would be simpler if I could create a
Value object without saying where it comes from. Sometime later I would
attach an actual value to the object.

llvm::Value * placeholder = builder.CreatePlaceholder( a_type );
...
placeholder->setSource( actual_value );


I could in theory use a PHINode, but it needs an actual IR instruction
to be inserted. That's something I'm trying to avoid.
