Ok. Here is the state of things. This has proved to be rather more
intractable than I expected. Almost all the legwork here has been done
by Amit Langote, for which he deserves both my thanks and considerable
credit, but I take responsibility for it.

I just discovered today that this scheme is failing under
"force_parallel_mode = regress". I have as yet no idea if that can be
fixed simply or not. Apart from that I think the main outstanding issue
is to fill in the gaps in llvm_compile_expr().

If you have help you can offer that would be very welcome.

I'd still very much like to get this done, but if the decision is we've
run out of time I'll be sad but understand.


cheers
