Here are the things I did,
- Compiled and installed gcc-9.2.
- Compiled and installed GNU binutils-2.32
- Compiled and installed GNU Make-4.2
- I downloaded the source codes for LLVM, Clang, LLD, libcxx, libcxxabi, lldb, polly, openmp and compiler-rt from the LLVM site (for version 8.0.1).
- I proceeded to compile LLVM alongwith the above projects.
During compilation I get some gibberish errors. I reproduce a part of the output below :

Considering that it is a stable release of LLVM, I hope that is not the case. Could someone help ?
