[LLVMdev] LLVM as a shared library

I personally find that the richer the language the harder it is to
remember in all the ways you can break something. But that is really
just a personal opinion or even deficiency. The point is that I am one
of the developers writing LLVM and I wouldn't want to put the effort
into developing and maintaining a stable C++ interface.

This is an open source project, so if you want a stable C++ interface
you will have to find enough developers with a good track record of
contributions to LLVM that think it worth it do develop and maintain
such interface.
