Tried running:
> Due to a bug in LLVM's build system, building LLVM a second time fails when building runtimes (complaining that clang fails to build a simple test program). A workaround is to build it yet again (it works each other time, i.e. the 1st, 3rd, 5th etc. time).I'm incredibly curious what this bug might be! | ||

I just yesterday read about obfuscated Trojan quines in compilers, and a good test being building the compiler twice and it being the same, and now I hear this. Spooked me for a sec xD | ||

Unrelated to this issue but I've had a race condition with Automake which while run oin 2-4 threads occured exactly every 2nd run. With -j48 it was obvious it's a race condition. No idea how cache invalidation works in the automake stack, but that must have caused it to fail exactly 50% of the time. | ||
