John,

Thanks for the fast reply.  I'll try building from source.

I think I was mislead by the downloads page:
<http://llvm.cs.illinois.edu/downloads.html>

which has a section titled "SAFECODE FOR LLVM 3.0".  As clang 3 just came 
out, I assumed this was very recent.  I didn't notice the word "snapshots" in 
there... :)

Cheers,
