Depends on what you expect to change. For one, fpc-llvm is ready for general testing although it has much less targets that fpc native codegen. In some scenarios such as artificial benchmarks, it can produce faster (10-20%) code.

Windows is the most important but not available for Windows?
FPC with an LLVM code generator backend is available on the git main branch. It currently supports the following targets:
* Darwin/x86-64
* Darwin/AArch64 (macOS, untested on iOS)
* Linux/x86-64
* Linux/AArch64
* Linux/ARMHF

Apparently, it's not the most important, at least for Jonas (or me for that matter).
Thaddy:
AFAIK even on Windows when CLang and its tool chain are installed. There are multiple ways to do that.
But note I use llvm just on Linux Debian and Raspberry Pies..
