I don't think LLVM is a lost cause there --- John Regehr and others are doing heroic work in this area --- but it sure is a problem.

Yup. I got the impression the LLVM people were quite happy to fix the problems, but if it's pervasive right through the IT and implementation, I can understand it being a long and painful process.

Certainly I've seen a fair few complaints that "C/C++ isn't strict, so the LLVM isn't strict. Rust is strict and it breaks".

Cheers,
