As a side note, the README.md in gnat-llvm says "This is a
work-in-progress research project that’s not meant for and shouldn’t be
used for industrial purposes. It’s meant to show the feasibility of
generating LLVM bitcode for Ada and to open the LLVM ecosystem to Ada,
including tools such as KLEE."
