[LLVMdev] LLVM libraries in Windows binaries?

Most platforms with package managers have easy access to pre-compiled 
binaries of LLVM, but not so much on Windows. The clang installers are nice, 
but LLVM is more than just clang. It would be super useful for out-of-tree 
languages and projects that build on the LLVM libraries (Julia, Rust, etc) 
to be able to use upstream binaries directly. Would it be possible or 
practical to put the static libraries (and shared dlls once that works well 
enough to be usable), headers, and additional tools like llvm-config into 
the installer, either the same download or a separate package? Are the 
installer generation scripts in a repository somewhere I could look at and 
help?

Thanks,
Tony
