Ah.  I also thought I might need LLVM dev (include/*.h & lib/.a), and
dll (bin/*.dll) artifacts similar to what the MinGW folks provide for
say http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/MinGW%20expat/expat-2.0.1-1/
and was thinking of requesting official MinGW versions from the LLVM
folks.

I see from configure that you have llvm 2.6 source at 
http://asset.rubini.us/prebuilt
so it's time to move past speculating and just suck it up and make the
time to actually try building and see where the issue are for real
before doing anything else.

Thanks, Jon
