Hi, just chiming in here...

>From the few times I tried building LLVM with CMake I got the impression
that it wasn't completely mature yet (the "TODO" sections in the page
you mention above reinforce that impression). I remember at least one
other build error in the past, related to building a non-X86 backend.

With current svn I get:

%> mkdir llvm-svn-build
%>  cd llvm-svn-build/
%>  ccmake ../llvm-svn
# Basically only tweak the install prefix in ccmake, configure, generate
%> make
...

This is on a Core2Duo 32-bit Gentoo Linux system, where building with
./configure; make succeeds without problems.
