Since building all of llvm required CXX and using libcxx with the same<br>
version as the rest of llvm makes sense, I would certainly appreciate<br>
an option to build the in-tree libcxx as a first step and use it in when<br>
building llvm, lld, lldb, clang, ...<br>
<br>
Since llvm already builds many other DSOs it needs at runtime, adding<br>
libcxx is reasonable. More so if we consider that not all systems package<br>
libcxx at the same version as clang and llvm. For instance, Arch Linux<br>
has libcxx 3.8.0 but llvm and clang 3.9.0.<br>
