Actually, the minimal change set to get this working is:
* tools/llvm-config/llvm-config.in.in (so the system can find the libraries)
** if the $PWD approach fails, fallover to Cwd module's abspath
* utils/GenLibDeps.pl (so the system links in the extra libraries beyond 
what is specified in the makefiles)
** if the extended pipe filtering fails, fallover to doing the 
sed/sort/uniq work in Perl directly.

I can provide patches for either of these if there's interest.

Yes, but ActivePerl's distribution is historically the normal one for 
Windows (and is by far the easiest one on Windows to install 
Crypt::SSLeay for; this pretty much dictates which one I normally use.).
