FWIW I've installed llvm 5.0.1 from distribution package, and now
everything builds fine (I don't even need the configure tweak).

I think I had to build the other binaries because there was no 5.x llvm
back then, but it's too far back so I don't remember.

Anyway, seems I'm fine for now. Sorry for the noise.
