Okay, the new release has (nearly) fixed things now.

Try the new 1.5 releases of llvm and cfrontend if you have not allready.

Do follow these instructions :-

        http://llvm.cs.uiuc.edu/docs/CFEBuildInstrs.html

I _would_ suggest updating your GCC to 3.4.3 as the document recommends.
You must use binutils version 2.15

There still seems to be a problem later on with step 9 and 'make check' 
failing though.

If you need any more help, do ask.
