This is mostly to Hans since he builds these AIUI, but would be worth
getting others' opinions too. I'd like to ask whether building the Windows
binaries *without* LLVM_INSTALL_TOOLCHAIN_ONLY could be considered and
tried. Would the result be a prohibitive amount larger than the current
installer? LLVM is an incredibly useful set of libraries and has many use
cases, including on Windows, beyond just a clang.exe add-in for Visual
Studio.
For those of us downstream users who consume LLVM as a library and aren't
doing development on LLVM itself every day, having libraries and headers
ready to go from a binary download would save a few hours of getting-up-
and-running time.
Thanks,
Tony
