 > Well, this seems to work for this version of rust. Fedora's patch does
 not seem to be needed. It is in a lldb_something file, and I do not think
 our build makes lldb usable.

 Forgot to comment on lldb : it is an external llvm tool (like clang, lld)
 and has at least one extra dep that is not in the book, plus although I
 thought I had doxygen installed it complained that was missing. But the
 extra dep made me stop investigating it. The rust-lldb is just a front-end
 for it.

 I'm still *vaguely* interested in trying to build rust with thin-lto
 (requires clang, llvm-ar, lld) but that would need several variations, and
 builds of the big programs which use rustc (firefox, thunderbird) to try
 different settings and to see if any make a meaningful improvement in
 build times. Seems too much effort to be worth the time in the short term.
 but I've added lld to my future llvm builds in case I change my mind.
