<div><br></div>
<div>1. The instructions don't say to do</div>
<div> gmake install</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>2. For me, gmake install created these with restrictive
permissions:</div>
<div> /usr/local/docs</div>
<div> /usr/local/include/llvm*</div>
<div> /usr/local/include/clang*</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>3. gmake uninstall did not remove</div>
<div> /usr/local/bin/llvm-config</div>
<div> /usr/local/lib/clang/</div>
<div> /usr/local/lib/LLVMHello.dylib</div>
<div> /usr/local/bin/profile_rt.dylib</div>
<div> /usr/local/include/llvm/</div>
<div> /usr/local/include/clang/</div>
