This is currently just a light SHA update of the current llvm formula, which is at 3.8.1. Not surprisingly it ends up looking a lot like Godin's update of llvm to 3.9.0 here: Homebrew/homebrew-core#4579 . LLVM switched to CMake-based builds after 3.8. This is why I haven't adapted the current llvm38 formula because it (probably) requires a good bit of changing to move it over from autoconfig.

Current status

brew install llvm39 builds to completion - see _latest_build.txt
creates /usr/local/opt/llvm39 directory as a symlink to /usr/local/Cellar/llvm39/3.9.0/
brew test llvm39 fails on the first C++ build with problems finding stdarg.h - see _test_failure.txt

Performance tests for JuliaLang/julia#21302

	# A round consists of repeatedly drawing a value from 0..255
	# until we first see a duplicate value. We count how many draws
	# were needed to hit that first duplicate.
	# Repeat for 1 million rounds, then draw a histogram showing
	# num draws vs num rounds with that num draws.
