Yes, I think they do.

Perhaps the expectation is that clang, compiler-rt, libcxx etc. must all be symlinked in?

I'm not sure if someone's working on revamping the release script. I think that would be a good discussion to start on the release-testers list.

The testing process should be fully documented here (https://llvm.org/docs/ReleaseProcess.html), and there's additional information about the qualification effort here (https://llvm.org/docs/HowToReleaseLLVM.html). The basic steps are to a) run the "test-release" script (this does a multi-stage build and runs tests), b) look for test and benchmark regressions, and c) share progress on the release-testers at lists.llvm.org mailing list. Once you have a package ready, you'll need to ask for permission to upload the package, then publish its hash on the release-testers list.
