Comment:

 @rwbarton Are you sure about 3.5 working? I seem to remember an issue
 about `def$...` symbols. On the other hand, I know 3.4 works with 7.10.

 Also this patch alone is insufficient (it also needs 42448e3757f257) and a
 change to chose a version of llvm other than 3.6. Working on modified
 versions of these two patches.
