Unless you are going to do a considerable amount of work to fix the
JIT implementation to use LLVM's stable C API, this is a dead end. You
may fix the compilation for LLVM 3.8.1, but it will remain broken for
past and future LLVM implementations, because the C++ API breaks every
LLVM release.

Notes are not error messages. They are attached to error messages in
order to explain an earlier error message. In this case, it's kind of
a "stack trace" of a failed template instantiation, I think. The notes
are telling you the steps that gcc took towards finding that
compilation error. It's difficult to know for sure because you
neglected to show us your actual error message, which should be higher
above before all of the notes.
