Any plan to use this in rustc? If so, is there a plan to maintain cross language LTO w/ C++?

One of the primary expectations / use cases for cranelift is its use for rustc's debug builds: https://github.com/CraneStation/cranelift/blob/master/rustc....

Definitely, for debug builds. Eventually perhaps for release—LTO is one of the many things we would have to figure out if we go down this road.
