FYI, to speed up the "make clean; make" cycle, consider using ccache:
http://ccache.samba.org/ .

It will also speed up your development should you choose to have 2+ LLVM
trees in which you might be working on separate changes (to keep one working
while you implement the other one) -- it will let you share the common
object files between the trees so you don't have to build everything all the
time, just what changed.
