Comment(by haruki.zaemon@…):

 I dug a little deeper and apparently LLVM already supports quite
 sophisticated TCO, including mutual recursion. Not sure why that doesn't
 take effect in MacRuby but I assume it's due to the way calls are
 constructed. Anyway, it's now well and truly outside my abilities.

 Thanks,
 Simon
