Edited the Description to include the important notes.

If you have installed llvm-3.7.0, should upgrade to 3.7.1, because there was an error making the C API of the former ABI/API incompatible with previous versions (see Description).

     24LLVM 3.7.1 is now available! Download it now, or read the release notes.
     25
     26This release contains bug-fixes for the LLVM 3.7.0 release. Note that
     27this release is *not* API and ABI compatible with 3.7.0. This is due to
     28a change in the C API in order to restore ABI/API compatible of the C
     29API with 3.6.x and 3.8.x. See the release notes for more details.

     39Major changes in 3.7.1
     40======================
     41
     42• 3.7.0 was released with an inadvertent change to the signature of the
     43  C API function: LLVMBuildLandingPad, which made the C API incompatible
     44  with prior releases.  This has been corrected in LLVM 3.7.1.
     45
     46  As a result of this change, 3.7.0 is not ABI compatible with 3.7.1.
