Oh, quaint. Gentoo's ebuild seems to think running sed scripts on the LLVM
build post configure is a good idea. This is completely unsupported.

Gentoo should file bugs to get configure to honor the appropriate arguments and
change their scripts. Munging our internal makefiles to get whatever behavior
they want is fragile and I'm not particularly sympathetic to it.

I reviewed the old llvm-config again, and I see no evidence that it would have
supported the kind of munging that Gentoo is doing. I would put in a fix for
this in the new llvm-config if it was trivial, but it isn't.

Note that LLVM's build script does not support any of the "fine tuning"
configure options like --bindir, --libdir, --includedir.

I am closing this as cannot reproduce, because it isn't possible to reproduce
using the supported setup (configure + make).

If you really want this to be fixed, please open an enhancement request for us
to properly support --libdir etc.
