This isn't a workaround, it's required and expected because *Xcode does not 
provide LLVM*.

Go ahead, look for it. You won't find it. Won't find it on Mountain Lion, 
either.

LLVM is a set of (mostly static) libraries used to build compilers. Clang / 
Apple's "LLVM Compiler" is a compiler built on LLVM. Once you use LLVM to 
create a compiler, you do not have to distribute LLVM with that compiler, and 
Apple does not. And wisely so, because there's no good reason for a set of 
general development tools to distribute a compiler construction kit.
