What dependencies are there?

On the usage side there should be very few outright dependencies: if the llvm 
binary is not available, or doesn't support what you need, or there's no runtime 
environment you can use to build the bytecode, you should display an informative 
error message so that the user knows what is missing and how to install it.

Thanks,
