[llvm-dev] Trouble with ORCv2 Tutorial

Hi Zeke,

Thanks for pointing this out.

You're right: the issue is that ORCv2 doesn't support code removal (yet).
To work around that we need to rename the anonymous expression each time
(e.g. __anon_expr.1, __anon_expr.2, ...). Sounds like we're not doing that
at the moment. I'll try to get it fixed up shortly.

Cheers,
Lang.
