I'd like to see us bump LLVM_DEFAULT well before the next release comes out
(roughly every six months), I just think it's best to give it some settle time.
 One could argue for waiting for the X.0.1 patch release, but that's probably
more conservative than necessary.

FWIW, I do get a fair bit of dogfooding even in the RCs without soliciting
testing.  It might be worth doing a call for testing on the mailing list for
LLVM_DEFAULT bumps in the future.
