Excellent - thanks for working on this!
I've taken the liberty of adding a link to your project to the wiki page
(https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/JIT ).

If you're looking to improve over the raw C interface, you might want to
use namespacing/modules/methods/classes/inheritance or whatnot to
shorten the API: all those gcc_jit_ prefixes are arguably redundant if
you're in an language that has namespaces, and a lot of things could
become calls on objects. Compare the C API with the C++ bindings, for
instance; rather than:
gcc_jit_block_add_assignment $b{loop}, undef, gcc_jit_param_as_lvalue($v), $r;
how about something like:
$b{loop}->add_assignment ($v, $r);
and:
my $ctx = GCCJIT::Context->acquire ();
...
my $res = $ctx->compile ();
etc
with the big caveat that my Perl skills are non-existent ;)
So take the above with a big pinch of salt; do whatever's idiomatic in
the language, I guess.

Hello everyone.
I have started working on Perl bindings to GCCJIT: https://github.com/vickenty/gccjit-perl
The package currently provides only bare bones bindings, without much improvement over the C interface (yet).
Suggestions, bug reports and patches are most welcome.
