I'll get back on this tonight or tomorrow.
* Am I correct in thinking that the CMake process doesn't reference 
GenLibDeps.pl?
* I am seeing desynchronization between the configure-generated 
Makefiles and the CMakeFile.txt files.  [e.g., llc; makefile doesn't 
have asmprinter, CMakeFile.txt does].  That much I should be able to 
construct a patch for "blind", if no-one gets to it first.
