|* JIT compilation of LLVM IR. Minimal documentation of C API specific issues *|
|* (especially memory ownership rules) is provided. Core Orc concepts are     *|

|* headers                                                                    *|

|* Many exotic languages can interoperate with C code but have a harder time  *|
|* with C++ due to name mangling. So in addition to C, this interface enables *|
|* tools written in such languages.                                           *|
