 * milestone:  7.10.1 => 7.12.1


Comment:

 OK, so right now Ben Gamari and I are working on fixing up the LLVM
 backend in HEAD soon by shipping a known good version of LLVM for users to
 use; the new changes require LLVM 3.6 but seems to be stable on ARM and
 x86. So I'm punting this one out to 7.12 for now, since hopefully it will
 be fixed by using a fixed compiler with good test results.
