it's possible use some of libclang to allow llvm backend use c header files to make {.header.} pragma working with llvm backend, Zig uses it for @cImport, @cDefine and @cInclude ffi features

No, I'm not interested in this "we need a C compiler for good" business.

Instead you can decide for every module whether to compile the module to C or to LLVM. You then get not as good debug info for your Nim code that compiles to C (POSIX wrappers?) but then who needs that. This design keeps the overall complexity low as no new language pragmas needs to be introduced.
