I would, if I could.

However, it seems that there is a lot of changes since release 1.2.
The cvsweb interface only allow me to download one file at a time.
I have grabbed "llvm/lib/CodeGen/RegAllocLinearScan.cpp" and
run make and make install.

But the problem is still there. The error message says:
   lli: /home/finna/llvm/llvm/include/llvm/Target/MRegisterInfo.h:144:
   static bool llvm::MRegisterInfo::isPhysicalRegister(unsigned int):
   Assertion `Reg && "this is not a register!"' failed.

But trying cvsweb I cannot locate the file mentioned above. I guess
you have removed it which likely means there are many files I should 
update.
Bus cvsweb is not the right interface for that.

How do I proceed ?
