LLVM optimisation passes / tables next to code

Hello,
I've been following the discussion with the LLVM developers, but the
last message I have received on that topic was about 4 days ago and it
was:
> Sure, the jump instruction is not the problem. But we were hoping to omit the jump instruction and have the compiler add the correct offset to the pointer when it generates code. In order to be able to do that, it has to know what the offset is:
label difference? Between start of function and start of the code?
Has the discussion arrived at some conclusion (i.e., the way to
address TNTC with LLVM is emitting jump instructions and/or
manipulating pointers to closures), or am I just not receiving further
messages?
Sergiu
