Keno's Cxx.jl " currently requires the head version of LLVM. This is fragile, but furthermore the compilation with the newest version of LLVM is very slow. These are issues that are currently being addressed (see: https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/9336) but probably not fixed before Julia 0.5.
With "available by default" I mean, that a pre-compiled version of Julia can be used. Am Mittwoch, 23.
