There are currently a few issues with JIT

1) Breakpoints are skipped in JITed code

2) Different result with NaNs in complex numbers

3) Segfaults with complex numbers and MSVC

Fixing 1 and 2 should be fairly easy, and hopefully I can get around
to it soon. Fixing 3 might be more of an issue, because I need to get
an MSVC build working and I currently have win8/vs2012 installed.
