There's no use for these utilities in FreeBSD base system.
I build FreeBSD 9 with CLANG. But as a missing llvm-as and llvm-ld (or
llvm-ar) would imply, the binaries are generated via binutils from
theGNU suite, aren't they?
llvm-{as,ld,ar} are not replacements for those from binutils. llvm-*
work on the llvm bitcode only and are of no use for normal object
files.
dim@ made a patch that adds those utilities if you really need them
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-toolchain/2011-June/000216.html
By default when you compile things with clang it uses its own assembler
(ie. it goes directly from C - .o) so typically only gnu ld is used
in the compilation chain.

Thank you very much. Patched and works.
What's the general opinion on applying this to -current? Otherwise
it'll be sitting in my private tree, possibly bit-rotting. :) For
people that are experimenting with llvm and/or clang, these additional
tools might sometimes come in handy.
For normal users, it won't have any impact, except for a few extra
source files in the tree. These tools will not be built by default.
Is there a chance to get the missing pieces of LLVM built by the above
mentioned method enabled in /etc/src.conf? As I can see,
even in FreeBSD 10.0-CURRENT the LLVM stuff didn't make it in. My built
is quite old, since I added the patch three months has been passed by ...

I can only speak for myself and several people of my department, which
are doing experiments with LLVM.
It is nice to have the knob building the missing tools on demand (should
be documented anywhere). I like it and I appreciate your work.
