in that case I suggest the following source for llvm-3.6, which is the
same that we use on Travis (all commands to be run as root):

First enable this repository to get a libstdc++ backport
$ add-apt-repository -y ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test
Then add the llvm backports repository
$ echo 'deb http://llvm.org/apt/precise/ llvm-toolchain-precise-3.6 main' >> /etc/apt/sources.list
$ wget -O - http://llvm.org/apt/llvm-snapshot.gpg.key | sudo apt-key add -
Then you can install the llvm package:
$ apt-get update
$ apt-get install llvm-3.6

Finally, you need to make sure that GHC’s configure finds these
binaries, e.g. by extending your PATH. You probably know better where to
put this in your configuration:
export PATH=/usr/lib/llvm-3.6/bin:$PATH

Greetings,
Joachim
