That also takes at least an hour to link.  I tried running on LLVM trunk 
from last night

    $ git log | head -n1
    commit 5e9173c43a9b97c8614e36d6f754317f731e71e9

and that completed.  Just as a curiosity I tried to re-spin it to see 
how long it takes, and it's been running for 23 minutes so far.

So I'm no longer actually sure there's a hang, just something slow.  
That's even more of a grey area, but I think it's sane to call a 1-hour 
link time a regression -- unless it's expected that this is just very 
slow to link?
