I second Pjotr on this. There are always tools that will lag behind, and having multiple LLVM versions is a reasonable (and possibly unavoidable) compromise, for now.
There may be problems with conflicts should a user install such pipelines with differing LLVM and Clang combinations within the same profile, as a worst case scenario.
