FWIW, I know that some mesa dri drivers use libLLVM. However, I assumed that to use a certain libLLVM version its also necessary to build with the compiler that is providing the library. Apparently mesa can be build with whatever compiler the system provides if it has required features. And from the referenced LLVM port only libLLVM (and other referenced libraries) is necessary. Is this correct? > New Intel driver called "iris" uses libLLVM, too. I would like to use this new driver, pity that I am on Haswell.
