You have to install LLVM from elsewhere to get full functionality on OS X:
Apple only ships the parts that Xcode cares about. OTOH, this pretty much
only impacts things that want to use LLVM IR. (On the gripping hand, for
some people that is about as relevant as OpenMP.)

There were some late SunOS 4 releases where you had (p)cc in the base, with
various tools that people expect missing, and had to install SunSoft C to
get a decent compiler and all the tools. (They removed almost all of it
from Solaris 2, of course.)
