Recently Mesa DRI started to use LLVM. (I noticed this because of sudden increase in package size.) According to the changelog of Debian source package mesa:
"Build r300 classic (through DRI_DRIVERS) everywhere, since r300g comes with a few additional requirements: LLVM is needed for this driver, and apparently only works fine on x86 platform. As a consequence, only build r300g on amd and i386, and add llvm-2.9-dev build-dep on those platforms accordingly. Disable it explicitly on other platforms." >From what I can tell, r300_dri.so and r600_dri.so under /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/dri in libgl1-mesa-dri package statically link LLVM 2.9. Since LLVM is a complex software and it is not inconceivable that security issues will be found, I think this should be noted in embedded-code-copies file.
