Extended Description

The instructions for writing the makefile says to place it the source tree at a
certain point. The next section says, to build the pass, just type 'gmake' in
the local directory. However, this doesn't work: if the source .cpp file is at
LLVM_SRC_ROOT/some_path/pass.cpp, then you need to copy the Makefile to
LLVM_OBJ_ROOT/some_path/Makefile, and type 'make' in that directory, not the
source directory.

If you've set up a project properly, the configure command should take care of
this for you. Please see the Projects documentation for details.

Ah, ok - I didn't realise that all that machinery was required, I was following
the instructions as given.

The makefiles are copies and configured correctly.
