Does newer llvm require a c++11 standard library or is the older one
still usable? If at least the package can be made self-contained that
would be nice as it is pretty unappealing to pull in gcc 4.8/9 (as a
library dependency) when you pkg_add llvm.

Another possible issue is that depending on ports gcc during build is
that there will likely be a negative impact on bulk build time, llvm is
on the path to a number of large ports. Not sure how bad this will be.
