If it's good enough for them, it's good enough for llvm too, and we don't need to extra complexity and dependencies. Also, the hacks in this code are ugly (writing our own function signatures for these functions instead of using a proper #include!).


This is exactly what LLVM did prior to r187874 <http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-commits/Week-of-Mon-20130805/183424.html> so this would mean basically reverting that change, I'm fine with that.
