Absolutely.  In fact, we already support g++.  Work is underway on objc,
Caml, Java, a forth-like frontend, etc.  The open-source 1.0 release of
LLVM is available btw:

We are also tentatively planning for a 1.1 release in the next couple of
weeks.  Here's the most recent "status update" from the project:

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me, though response
might be slow due to the holidays.
