I know, since 1999 I personally never used Perl anymore (also I said IF 
- fair enough, right?), but the emphasis of the discussion should not be 
? vs Python (or other implementation details at this stage), but:

Would like the LLVM/Clang main contributors (aka the Compiler Guys) and 
key-users prefer the clear SOURCE-CODE for building related knowledge, 
expressed in independent and project-tailored DSL and therefore 
translated and optimized for several BACKEND build systems (native or 
not so), like the LLVM itself or not (e.g. because CMake + already 
invested 7 KLOC are-at/can-be-enhanced-to sufficient level).

Kind Regards,
Alek
