Hi Sylvestre,

Here is a patch for llvm-toolchain-3.6. It is now possible to build it
with the bindings enabled, since ocaml-ctypes >= 0.4 has transitioned
[1].

Basically, besides re-enabling it, I just had to fix the documentation
installdir, and add a patch to fix a wrong use of the ctypes API.
Note that this patch was taken from gentoo [2].
Also, I had to disable the checks (DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nocheck).

I have a similar patch for llvm-toolchain-3.7 (without the ctypes patch,
fixed upstream), I will open a separate bug.

Thanks,
Pierre
