Christopher,

I've been able to make (what I think) is a good build simply by changing 
HOST_CXX inside build/core/combo/HOST_darwin-x86.mk to |llvm-g++|.  None of the 
other changes appeared to be necessary for me.  I wonder if you might confirm 
this on your end?

I haven't been able to flash this build, I think because no boot.img is being 
created, and updates need to be made.  Are you flashing on a production device? 
 If so, did you run into problems here?  If not, then it could be something is 
failing because I didn't attempt to make the other changes you mentioned.

- James
