8465	llvm-3.9.0: make cmake Required instead of Recommended	Jeremy Henty	Samuel	"Previous versions of llvm could be built with cmake or autotools, and therefore cmake was described as Recommended rather than Required.  (See my earlier ticket http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/ticket/7953 for some discussion about this.)

However, llvm-3.9.0 has removed support for building with autotools.  Running ./configure does nothing except return an error message telling the user to use cmake.  Since cmake is now the only way to build llvm, it should be Required instead of Recommended."	defect	closed	normal	8.0	BOOK	SVN	medium	fixed
