<p>LLVM 2.5 includes several major new capabilities:</p>
<ul>
<li><p> Legalize Types</p></li>
<li><p>The code generator now supports arbitrary precision integers.
Types like <tt>i33</tt> have long been valid in the LLVM IR, but previously
could only be used with the interpreter.
Now IR using such types can be compiled to native code on all targets.
All operations are supported if the integer is not bigger than twice the
target machine word size.
Simple operations like loads, stores and shifts by a constant amount are
supported for integers of any size.
