6. Build LLVM and Clang:
- mkdir build (for building without polluting the source dir)
- cd build

... suggests building under a separate directory to avoid polluting the build.
However, it appears as if (at least) clang-tools/clang-format does not build
unless the build is started from the root (llvm) directory, because of the
relative path specified for Makefile.config in
tools/clang/tools/clang-format/Makefile.</pre>
