I wonder if there will ever be a de facto API wrapper for LLVM. As it is, I'm aware of smaller efforts here and there, but other than SPIR-V [1] I'm not sure any are big enough to have long-term survivability potential. And even with SPIR-V I'm not sure if the momentum is really there or not.

I think Apple's bitcode for iOS deployment is also more stable than the actual LLVM bitcode.
