Okay, that makes sense now ;)

That is something that your build system should be doing, not llvm-gcc.
Unfortunately, I don't know newlib at all so I can't help you there. It
should be as simple as:

CC=llvm-gcc -emit-llvm

somewhere in the makefile. Or, try invoking make this way:

make CC="llvm-gcc -emit-llvm"
