We currently have 3 versions of llvm-toolchain in bullseye. That's 2
versions too many to support. We are aware that getting rid of
llvm-toolchain-9 and llvm-toolchain-10 is likely not possible, but one
of them will be removed and llvm-toolchain-10 is the most likely
candidate for removal.

If julia does not work with llvm-toolchain-11, please go back to
llvm-toolchain-9.

Cheers
