The only downsides I see from this approach is that user code will depend on LLVM libraries if LLVM is build using shared libraries. But I'm pretty sure the default build method in LLVM is to use static libraries so that shouldn't propagate to users just wishing to build `libomptarget` alone. We may have some vendors complain about the extra dependency, but I'm personally not aware of anyone using Clang/LLVM for OpenMP offloading that isn't building it with LLVM or getting it through a release that was build with LLVM.
