[llvm-dev] [cfe-dev] LLVM 3.9 RC binaries should NOT disable assertions.

[Mehdi Amini via llvm-dev]

I share the same basic opinion as Duncan, it makes me uncomfortable to not test what is shipped.
Also users have to know that their compile-time will regress with RC compared to release.
Maybe we could put both build online?
