For distros, you're probably talking about small programs with shared libraries. I talked to the Bolt guy at an LLVM meeting and Bolt is set up for big statically linked programs like what you'd see at Facebook or Google (which has Propeller). It may have changed but even though they were upstreaming Bolt to LLVM, they didn't really have support for small programs with shared libraries.
