Yeah I think I mixed it up with something else, anyway I found a very nice tutorial how to make a working compiler with LLVM http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/os-createcompilerllvm1/index.html http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/os-createcompilerllvm2/ looks like nativeboost on steroids !!!!

About LLVM sound very cool and I was googling about that few hours ago but from what I have read is a very undocumented part of LLVM so that maybe easier said than done. Looks like Pharo is not the only project having issues with documentation ;)
LLVM is an industrial-class open source project included in, I believe, all GPU drivers (for compilation of CUDA and OpenCL code).
It is also one of the best documented low-level compilation toolkits with performance to match the other open source compiler (gcc). LLVM-IR is fairly well documented.
So it looks like I will be sticking with Pharo after all :D
