I assumed you were well aware of the earlier thread from almost two years ago that was the precursor to this one (Subject: [Sharing progress] Tried to revive LLVM/Clang/Libc++ pkgs and port Rust) in which you were also active. In that thread there's a summary of what I did and why and which problems I encountered, some of which you and Jeremy seem to have re-discovered (plus a few more that are likely due to changes that happened in the meantime or I just didn't uncover). I did get llvm-10 to about the same state after the update to gcc-12 by using the same cygport, but I was still seeing the same roadblocks. The thread you are still in now came about half a year later. > Note that there were too many differences between version 9 > and version 20, so there were few parts that could be reused. I still think you will need to do all the cleanups again if you seriously want to revive that package, but it's your decision should you become the maintainer, not mine. Anyway the first time I've looked into it, my preference would have been to lift from llvm-9 incrementally to what then would likely have been llvm-14 or llvm-15, but now that the target is already llvm-20 that sounds like too much busywork for not much gain.
