llvm dev - Sep 2014 - [LLVMdev] Why is llvm/Config/config.h not being installed any more with cmake in LLVM 3.5?

Hi,

So when I look at CMakeLists.txt in LLVM 3.5, I can observes this on line 591:
PATTERN "config.h" EXCLUDE

Note that this line is not present in LLVM 3.4.

This causes config.h not to be copied into
include/llvm/Config/config.h, which is unlike previous LLVM versions.
This is turn causes my project to fail when trying to build it with
cmake...

Why is config.h not being copied over any more when using cmake?

Is this expected behavior?

Thanks,
-- Zvonimir

`git blame` tells me this was r210766:

    CMake: don't install the internal config.h header
    
    Background:

You should transition to `llvm/Config/llvm-config.h`.
