[LLVMdev] Reminder: Please switch to MCJIT, as the old JIT will be removed soon.

[Keno Fischer]

If you have specific questions about this transition, I might be able
to help out here, as I've gone through this process with Julia (the
process should be a lot smoother now that it's working for a good set
of people, so most bugs should have been found)
