It feels quite hard to do a compile from sources and I am wondering that others can do it without such problems. And yes, why is there no actual documentation or maybe a simple bash script or Makefile for that?
Documentation is. But it's fragmented:
- How to build llvm and clang -- http://clang.llvm.org/get_started.html
- How to build libc++ -- http://libcxx.llvm.org/
- How to build lldb -- http://lldb.llvm.org/build.html

I've built these tools on Ubuntu 14.04 recently. And I didn't fix or
edit anything. I just followed the steps I listed in my first message.
Anyway, try to compile it without lldb. Its build script seems buggy --
http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=18957

And what distro do you use?
