It is still experimental, based on old LLVM 3.8 and the list of known issues at http://www.colecovision.eu/llvm+sdcc/ is still up-todate. The next steps would probably be: 1) Port cfe and cbe fork to current LLVM 4.0 or 5.0 (note that other cbe forks have already been updated to LLVM 4.0, so it might be easy to port the changes). 2) Fix the worst of the known issues. 3) Do more testing. 4) Fix more issues. An easy-to-use release could maybe happen after that.
