Comment (by George):

 From ghc-7.8.20140130/docs/users_guide/users_guide/code-generators.html
 #llvm-code-gen:

 To install LLVM and Clang:

 ...
 Mac OS X: LLVM and Clang are included by default from 10.6 and later.

 Apple does not include LLVM (opt and llc are what is needed) by default.
 They needed to be installed by homebrew or an alternative system. We may
 want to document that llvm 3.4 is the preferred version.
