[llvm-dev] [RFC] Proposing libcxx-config.py: a configuration tool for building and using libc++
> Configuring a compiler to target or build libc++ is tricky. It oftenrequires suppressing and rebuilding large parts of the CC1 compiler invocation. Doing this manually can be prohibitive, even for experienced users. Yes this was definitely hard for me also at the first time especially when bootstrapping clang on some old distros like either centos5 or debian6. +1 for me purposing new automated script instead of manually passing cmake args and configuring llvm folder tree layout.
