--------------------------------------------+-------------------------------
 The llvm port sets up ocaml libraries if ocaml is present when llvm is
 installed. But it places incorrect symbolic links in
 /opt/local/lib/ocaml.

 The following appears to corrects the problem:

 {{{
 # *2 - correct the incorrect links in /opt/local/lib//ocaml
 cd /opt/local/lib/ocaml
 sudo rm libLLVM*.a rm LLVM*.o
 sudo ln -s /opt/local/lib/libLLVM* .

 }}}


 There appear to be references in the compiled ocaml bindings for llvm to
 files in the directory:

 /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_lang_llvm/work/build/Release/lib/

 But after a port clean this directory doesn't exist. The following appears
 to fix the problem:


 {{{
 # *1 - link all the LLVM*.o files to the place where (ocalbuild) thinks
 they are

 sudo mkdir -p
 /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_lang_llvm/work/build/Release/lib/
 sudo ln -s /opt/local/lib/LLVM*.o
 /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_lang_llvm/work/build/Release/lib/

 }}}


 I apologise that I am not a macports adept and do not know how to correct
 the port itself.
