Incidentally, since then, LLVM 2.7 has been released, including
becoming self-aware (sorry, hosting) and can compile C++ though it's
in the early stages. It's considered production quality on x86 for C
and Objective-C though. There's also front-ends for GCC so it might be
possible to hook in using the existing GCC support in CDT.

In terms of deeper integration, there's a bunch of things that the
compiler can now do, including trace metadata through the compile
chains:

And a bit of fun with symbolic compilers :)
