 Could you switch to llvm-3.4-dev?
 Unfortunately upstream does not officially support LLVM 3.4 yet, not
 even for the latest development sources (it seems to compile, but there
 are issues, like https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/6369 ). For
 the current stable release (0.2) that is in sid, it is even worse, since
 julia FTBFS due to LLVM API changes.

 So at the very least I have to package a development snapshot. I need to
 get several new build dependencies through NEW, so it will take some
 time. Hopefully that will be done before the jessie freeze.
 Looking at https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/6757, it seems that
 even the next major release of Julia (0.3) will still require LLVM 3.3
 to be fully functional.

 Would that be acceptable for you to ship LLVM 3.3 in Jessie?

Not really ... I am planning to ship with llvm 3.4  3.5.
I don't want to third instance just for a single package.

OK. thanks for the information.

Yeh. I am not planning to have llvm 3.3 in Jessie. :/
