The the current JIT is, in my understanding, more or less a stepping stone towards native compilation. The current JIT is very small and lightweight, without any tracing, meaning things like register allocation is flexible going forward.

I am not a maintainer, nor heavily involved, but I believe libgccjit would be a step sideways considering the above. 

Best regards
