Here's the recent discussion on this:
http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/pipermail/llvmdev/2010-February/029495.html

Summary: no-rtti speeds up LLVM compile time thus developers do not
want RTTI on by default, plus it makes the binaries a bit smaller.
Distro packagers are asked to enable it by default to allow using
LLVM better as a library.
