LLVM and Clang packages in Debian Wheezy Beta4

Hi LLVM maintainers,

I'm having issues with the LLVM/Clang packages in Debian Wheezy Beta4.
It seems these packages are missing files that I can only obtain when
building LLVM/Clang myself.  I'd rather use Debian's packages, and so I am
wondering if these files can be included in either an existing or a new dev package.

The files I am referring to are the LLVM cmake modules -  applications that build
custom LLVM passes require the LLVM cmake modules during the build process.

For llvm-3.2, the files I'm referring to exist in:
llvm-3.2.src/cmake/modules/*.cmake

And after building LLVM/Cmake like this:
wget http://llvm.org/releases/3.2/llvm-3.2.src.tar.gz
wget http://llvm.org/releases/3.2/clang-3.2.src.tar.gz
tar xaf llvm-3.2.src.tar.gz
tar xaf clang-3.2.src.tar.gz
cp -R clang-3.2.src llvm-3.2.src/tools/clang
cd llvm-3.2.src/
mkdir build
cd build/
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/home/karsten/.local ../.
make
make install

the files are then installed to:
/home/karsten/.local/share/llvm/cmake/*.cmake

Neither the llvm or llvm-dev packages contain these files. Is there an existing package 
that I am missing that contains these files? Otherwise, does it make sense to include 
these files in the llvm-dev package?

Best regards,
Rob
