Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I also see some issues during compilation
even with llvm included (with gcc 5.4.0 and 7.1.0). Is it expected, do I need
to use another version to check it out?

    $ git rev-parse HEAD
    e24cac5951575cf86f138080acec663a0a05983e

    $ ./configure --prefix=/build/postgres-jit/ --with-llvm
--enable-debug --enable-depend --enable-cassert
