Partially.  LLVM can target Windows ARM.  One big caveat: I’ve only added
support for Windows ARM NT, not Windows CE.

I’ve never tried to build LLVM itself to be hosted on Windows ARM though.
I also added the necessary support for the JIT to work for Windows ARM (at
least should be sufficient for evaluating expressions in lldb).  The one
thing that is currently an issue is that we do not emit pdata/xdata which
means that exceptions are not supported right now.  I’d really like to add
that support, but I don’t have the time right now.
