[llvm-dev] poolalloc: Updating to CMake

[Jon Eyolfson via llvm-dev]

Hi John,

Do you know of anyone that's responsible for the official 'poolalloc'
repository? or are there just multiple forks floating around?

Most of the changes I made were trivial, except for the linking stage that's
failing right now.

Thanks,
Jon
