Comment(by cdavis@…):

 The problem as I understood it is that some of the cctools (e.g. lipo,
 libtool) don't understand LLVM bitcode. Specifically, they don't know how
 to determine the architecture of a bitcode file.

 So lipo, and anything that uses it to read/write fat Mach-O and archive
 files, are all useless right now for dealing with LLVM bitcode objects, as
 well as archives composed entirely of bitcode objects. Same for libtool. I
 filed radar 9087924 for this; so far, I haven't gotten a response.
