Comment (by bgamari):

 I finally have a brutally hacked implementation working with both LLVM 3.4
 and HEAD (r213478). Unfortunately, it's nowhere near merge-worthy. In
 fact, it's terrible. That being said, it
 (https://github.com/bgamari/ghc/compare/llvm-3.5-new) works and may serve
 as a model if someone has some time to do some refactoring. Otherwise I'm
 afraid my weekend is now over so I'll have to put this down for a while.
