If you have clang installed configure will fail with "C compiler cannot 
create executables."

There is a ticket for that already. I think that Bruce used instructions 
from Archlinux when he updated LLVM (as I pointed him there), but I 
think that sed didn't work out and didn't set docdir right. Maybe newer 
pkgbuilds at Archlinux fix that?

Not sure about TCL but there are OCAML bindings.

Not required unless you have Radeon cards (r300 chips and later).
