I suspect this is a tribute to LLVM as well as the Kotlin Native team.
Like LDC takes DMD frontend and injects into the LLVM backend, so
Kotlin Native takes the Kotlin frontend and injects into LLVM.

Sadly they currently just use the GTK C API directly, rather than
having a Kotlin idiomatic binding. Not competition for D in the GTK
GStreamer arena just yet. I have however put in issues.
