Thank you for reviewing this, Sebastien, It is really unfortunate to require a 3rd llvm version to be built. On my "fast" arm64 machine llvm takes 4-5 hours, (amd64 seems to be 30-45 minutes?) so that is a significant time to replicate. Would it be helpful for me to test the ports that require llvm-19 and see if they still compile and work with llvm-20? Short of that I do not think it makes sense to build a third version of llvm for a single port. bmercer@
