Already knew that.  I was querying about llvm-gcc.  Sorry that I was too
terse to make that clear originally.

Yeah, I guess I was hoping that would have been inferred by my question
about the parts that were derived from gcc.

Still, I shouldn't have been so snarky in my comments back to you.  But then
I really thought you were asking for it with the google comment.  Especially
since I'm using a gmail address.

I apologize for my terse, difficult to understand question, and my
snarkiness.  I hope you can accept that.  I don't want to start yet another
pissing match on a FreeBSD mailing list.  :-)

PS:  I actually do use llvm-gcc on Mac OS X
