I also filed a PR (

It seems, that the port devel/llvm-devel also misses some pieces of the
most recent LLVM 3.2, as it is needed to compile POCL properly, but I
leave this with the experts to change.

I try to follow a logical path: devel/llvm represents the recent
release, while devel/llvm-devel should be the development branch, 3.3 by
now.
I do not know whether we need LLVM 3.1 any more, since apart from the
POCL device driver backend via LLVM for OpenCL target I know about
nothing in the FreeBSD realm by now using LLVM. I might be wrong ...


So, I see forward to hear from the decissions made ;-)
