Zachary - were you trying to build on Windows without a gcc-compatible
compiler, and getting linker errors/warnings in that case?

If so, a correct check might really be the final patch I sent out earlier:

diff --git a/CMakeLists.txt b/CMakeLists.txt
index bad83e8..4cfa1d9 100644
--- a/CMakeLists.txt
+++ b/CMakeLists.txt
@@ -218,7 +218,8 @@ macro(add_lldb_library name)
   endif ()

   if(LLDB_USED_LIBS)
-    if (LLVM_COMPILER_IS_GCC_COMPATIBLE)
+    # The Darwin linker doesn't understand --start-group/--end-group.
+    if (LLVM_COMPILER_IS_GCC_COMPATIBLE AND NOT "${CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME}"
MATCHES "Darwin")
