I am trying to build with LLVM under windows. Using SCons and MinGW.
After solving some basic problems with llvm-config and applying the patches for 8.0.3 most things are going OK.

Until it is time to generate the libgallium.a library. The "ar" command to build this library is over 10kBytes long, and windows has a hard limit of 8kB for commands in the terminal window.

So the build halts with "command line too long".

I can manually edit the command and replace a lot of specific build/windows-x86/gallium/auxiliary/xxx/yyy.o filenames with *.o wildcards, which makes the command much shorter, run it manually, and then it works. This doesn't help me however, since SCons doesn't like the manually generated libgallium.a file, and deletes it and tries to build a new one, which then fails.

Any ideas how I can get passed this and have the build continue? I just want to build a working llvmpipe driver for a performance test.
