My understanding is the Apple makes use of the LLVM extensively in the rendering pipeline. Expressing graphics commands in a language that compiles down to LLVM (OpenGL?) allows JITing for the target graphics hardware. This allowed sharing a lot of graphics code between Leopard (targeted at machines with hardcore graphics accelerators) and the iPhone (where power consumption is the highest priority.)
