Note: at this point where a JIT backend is "mostly done", subtle bugs
left in the JIT backend generate hard crashes that show up very
rarely.  I recommend that you use test_zll_stress_*.py in
jit/backend/test/ --- and not just once.  For example, leave them
running repeatedly for 12 or 24 hours and be happy only if they pass
successfully every time.  These tests are good at figuring out such
rare cases.


A bientôt,

Armin.
