LLVM's cmake build system cannot produce the DLLs at all, so I'll stick 
with the autotools.

Yes, that seems to have solved the problem.

Thanks much for the help and advice!

One more question has arisen.  The LLVM build system installs an 
"llvm-config" Perl script, providing functionality specific to 
pkg-config, in %{mingw32_bindir}.  If w64 builds were working, there 
would be a different one in %{mingw64_bindir}.  Since the script runs on 
the build system, not Windows, should I leave it there, or do something 
like move/rename it to %{_bindir}/mingw32_llvm_config?

Best regards,
