Another project that allows for making it easier to run bcc on remote systems is bpfd which seems to be used by Android folks. It allows to run bcc on a remotely connected system without the need to have the entire LLVM infrastructure there. The announcement of the project was here https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/12/29/137 (https://github.com/joelagnel/bpfd). Perhaps this might rather be what you could be looking for wrt remote system.

It just seems a waste to require the full LLVM machinery when the target is so simple and most scripts are trivial. A good old one-pass translator will probably be more than sufficient for most of users.
