As an notice in advance, I'm going to patch llvm-8 for julia, adding exactly the following patches https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/blob/36c4eb251edfcd57b05d31a6b2b44ac71a36e36d/deps/llvm.mk#L464-L475 I'll prepare the changes in a certain git branch, and ping you to review them when it's ready.
Thanks! What about migrating to -9 ? I am not going to spend much more time on -8 as we don't ship the next release with -8 Cheers, Sylvestre
