Currently llvm 21 llvm-config --libs gives a bad result that is unusable.
m2$ /usr/local/llvm21/bin/llvm-config --libs
-lLLVM-
m2$ /usr/local/llvm20/bin/llvm-config --libs
-lLLVM
m2$ /usr/local/llvm19/bin/llvm-config --libs
-lLLVM
Note the dash after the LLVM lib name. It looks like a chunk of the patch
to llvm-config.cpp is missing. Copying forward the chunk from llvm 20 to
21 fixes it:
m2$ /usr/local/llvm21/bin/llvm-config --libs
-lLLVM
tested on aarch64. okay?
Also note 22 looks like it needs the same fix but it not yet hooked
up to the build.
