Hi echristo, nlewycky,

(CC-ing cfe-commits even though this is an LLVM patch... it affects both projects)

This is a followup from: http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/pipermail/llvm-commits/Week-of-Mon-20150323/268067.html

Upgrade instructions:
```
$ mv llvm/include/llvm/Config/config.h ./config.h.BACKUP

# copy the configure line from line 7 of llvm/config.log (for example: `$ ./configure --no-create --no-recursion`

$ mkdir build
$ cd build

# run the configure line, but this time with '../llvm' at the beginning:

$ ../llvm/configure --no-create --no-recursion
```
