[LLVMdev] Error while compiling mysql using LLVM-gold

Normally it is all done in the plugin. Are you passing -emit-llvm to
llvm-gcc? If so, running file in one of the .o should show "data" and
you can get a combined bitcode file by passing
-Wl,-plugin-opt=also-emit-llvm to the final link line. So if you do

gcc a.o b.o -o foo -Wl,-plugin-opt=also-emit-llvm

you will get two files, foo and foo.bc. The first one is an elf file,
the second one is bitcode.
