-# AOT Util
-
-Ahead-of-time (AOT) utility library. Contains native code used by the AOT lowering and delegation logic. Note 
-that this library should build independently of the runtime code, and as such, should not have dependencies 
-on runtime targets.
-
-This library is intended to be built and distributed as part of the Python pip package, such that it can be
-loaded by AOT Python code.
