I've never even heard of it.

The first thing I'm trying to do is learn and successfully implement
JIT period, because I am a complete and total n00b at it.

Th second thing is to add JIT to DGD.

The second thing depends on the first.

As far as LLVM, I think it may have been related to jit, but I
probably just got the terninology completely hashed.

Bear in mind I am a n00b in this area.
