+At this time, LLVM is known to work properly with SPEC CPU 2000, the Olden
+benchmarks, and the Ptrdist benchmarks among many other programs.  Note however
+that the Sparc and X86 backends do not currently support exception throwing or
+long jumping.  For these programs you must use the C backend.<p>
