5 That's fair. Still a bit of a bummer that we cannot guarantee a
6 frictionless support for clang-based kernels, in a sense that your
7 system could pull new update of llvm and clang, but will not
8 automatically add new slot for lld, which means unless you manually
9 install lld:NEW_SLOT your 'make LLVM=1' will fail, as it will pick wrong
10 LD from another clang version.
