Bug#816743: llvm-toolchain-3.7: powerpc and mips

Hi,

disabling polly worked really well on Ubuntu.

I'm not sure it will automagically build everywhere now, but
I have enough confidence that the failures will be fixed,
at least on release architectures.
(the failures were the same as Ubuntu, so even if I didn't directly
test debian I guess they will be fine)

I had to revert your ocaml change, because it wasn't working correctly. :)


3.8 report:

it builds everywhere on Ubuntu
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/llvm-toolchain-3.8/1:3.8~+rc2-1~exp1ubuntu2
and we are going to upload 3.8 with almost no changes (just some breaks+replaces)
on xenial right now
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/llvm-toolchain-3.8/+bug/1553923

I disabled polly on s390x (testsuite failure), but I can't sort the powerpc issue
dh_install: libclang-common-3.8-dev missing files: usr/lib/llvm-3.8/lib/clang/3.8.0/*.txt

"asan_blacklist.txt" and similar aren't generated on powerpc, not sure why.

and many others failures seems to be a bug in binutils/linker, so they should probably be reported.


cheers,

Gianfranco
