1 This has little to do with Gentoo , but still it is a interesting debate .

3 You can compile a great sort of programing lenguages to llvm bytecode :
4 C(++) , java , Objetive C(++) , C# , Haskell , Rust ... And a lot more . On
5 the other side , you CAN'T compile , lenguages like python or perl .

7 The interesting part is that a feature under developement : It can
8 decompile C(++) code to LLVM bytecode , (only if it not use plataform
9 specific libraries or assembly code ) So , you can easily port your
10 favourite X86 privative application to ARM or PPC , Just wonderfull .
