As I said, this is something detected by CMake, not LLVM's scripts.  We could attempt to submit a fix to CMake, but that will take quite some time to arrive, and some vendor versions (such as Red Hat's or Debian's) will not be fixed for years, if ever.

What this patch does, is pass through absolute library paths (even if those might be less desirable) through, unmodified, so programs using `llvm-config --system-libs` will not fail to link.
