I'm not an LLVM dev, but I am the maintainer for all of the LLVM-related 
packages for my distro. I have a few thoughts on changes to the build 
system that could make my life easier, but they're largely orthogonal to 
the work you described. Are you interested in hearing about them now, or 
would you rather just focus on the (rather large) task you've already 
set out? I've been planning on doing a writeup to send to the list 
anyway, but if there's a chance you'll integrate the changes in work 
starting next week I'll be sure to collect all my thoughts and send them 
sooner.

Regards,
Shea Levy
