Sounds great.

I think here would be better to use something like

#if defined (LIBGCCJIT_HAVE_gcc_jit_context_add_driver_option) || defined 
(WINDOWSNT)

plus the pragma to cleanup the warning as we do in Fcomp_libgccjit_version.

We should break this line to be max 80 columns wide.

With those changes looks good to me once the paperwork is completed.

Thanks!
