[LLVMdev] LLVM-gcc for ARM

Yes. LLVM defaults to ARMv5 in codegeneration and does not support
ARMv4. Without any extra option arm-elf-as assumes ARMv4 and thus
gives you these errors. So:

1. If your desired target platform is ARMv4 and not newer - then
you're out of luck
2. Otherwise - add --with-cpu or --with-arch to llvm-gcc configure to
select the processor / arch desired.

It seems that you're interested in Cortex CPUs
("/tmp/arm-cortex-toolchain"), then your desired arch is armv7,
configure with --with-arch=armv7 or e.g. --with-cpu=cortex-a8
