http://llvm.cs.uiuc.edu/docs/* is a copy of llvm/docs/* so it is under
CVS and you get it if you check out the `llvm' module.

You should run 'gmake install-bytecode', not 'gmake install' (I'll fix
that in the doc).  It should install into the $LLVMGCCDIR/bytecode-libs.
You specify the llvm-gcc dir with

  ./configure --with-llvmgccdir=<dir>

so that Makefile.config has correct settings.  The default is probably
/usr/local which is where it wants to install to.

I don't have an ftp server that accepts incoming files.  I do not object
to attachments via email.  Maybe Brian has an ftp server?  Otherwise you
can just email me.
