Sorry, realized the previous letter was phrased ambiguously.
I'm asking because I do want to break existing bindings. The changes
would
mainly touch two areas:
1) Memory management. I want to get rid of most or all of dispose
functions
and allow to use OCaml's GC.
2) Llvm_target interface is very outdated and it could be updated to
integrate
much better with the TargetMachine interface.
There are also two or three Llvm functions which need minor changes.
I'm not going to change APIs in any way which needs nontrivial,
significant
fixes to clients, there's simply no need.
