+//
+// This small program provides an example of how to quickly build a small
+// module with two functions and execute it with the JIT.
+//
+// Goal:
+// The goal of this snippet is to create in the memory
+// the LLVM module consisting of two functions as follow:
+//
+// int add1(int x) {
+// return x+1;
+// }
+//
+// int foo() {
+// return add1(10);
+// }
+//
+// then compile the module via JIT, then execute the `foo'
+// function and return result to a driver, i.e. to a "host program".
+//
+// Some remarks and questions:
+//
+// - could we invoke some code using noname functions too?
+// e.g. evaluate "foo()+foo()" without fears to introduce
+// conflict of temporary function name with some real
+// existing function name?
+//
