Hi Renato,

I'll probably be building LLVM, Clang & lldb during the process, and commit
the fundamentals at the same time. After that, cleanups will continue for a
while but shouldn't block any other commits. Since most external interfaces
will remain the same though, I'm not anticipating many synchronisation
issues.

So, since no-one has told me the sky would fall down if I do this, I'm
planning to go ahead. Last chance to call a halt, everyone!

Cheers.

Tim.
