[LLVMdev] Path to AutoRegen.sh

OK. My fault here. Will check some of your observations and resubmit.

Agree... but we must be sure if it does not brake anything. I'm running
out of time with the current project, but, after it finishes, can look
to.

Well... at least there where no changes in macros used by the sample
project. But, if we are meant to migrate the whole LLVM to 2.6, I need
to investigate it further.

Ok. 

> - Does libtool also have to be upgraded?
Don't know. I'm using 1.5.24, but don't know if it will work with other
versions. It's another think I need to check.

Agree. Sent it just because, as a beginner with LLVM, it was a pain to
start a new project in my environment, and I know there are a lot of
other ubuntu users out there, but it's not necessary to hurry.
