Well seeing as how this is eliminating llvm, I was more focused on making the 
new ports fit in with our other tradition, llvm-devel.  So there would be 
llvm-2,9, llvm-3.0, and llvm-devel ("devel" just being another version which 
was always master and thus not ABI safe), but I eventually decided to just use 
llvm-3.1 for master.

Thanks.  Please let me know how it goes.
