[LLVMdev] build failure on mingw gcc 4.9.1

Tue Jan 27 02:54:57 PST 2015

We could probably do a glob on C:/Windows/System32 to find all msvcr*.dll or something like that. But this seems excessively complicated. It might be better to just provide a variable MINGW_MSVCRT_VERSION which is set to 90 by default and can be set to 100 or 110 (or as soon as mingw supports it 120) as desired. None of these options require installing Visual C++, you only need to install the redistributables, so I think that requirement isn't too bad.

Is there any way for CMake to detect which version of MSVCRT is present? Otherwise there's really no default we can give. If not, then we'll have to disable the error UI suppression on mingw.
