LLVM does not support unions - so one has to use structs and casts
etc. Does libgccjit support union types?

I see that there is an API to create a union type, although this is
not described in the online docs. So in general are the online docs
kept up to date or should I just refer to the header file?

libgccjit does support union types; I just forgot to document them.
The online docs are up-to-date, but they may be incomplete in places, as
in this case. Please let the mailing list know if you see any other
things that aren't documented (or file them as bugs against the "jit"
component).
For an example of using a union type, see this testcase:
