Extended Description

Regarding http://clang.llvm.org/get_started.html, "Building Clang and Working with the Code" "On Unix-like Systems" step 6.

This states "This builds both LLVM and Clang for debug mode."

Right next to that, it should say to use "-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release" to make a release build.

Someone not paying attention can easily miss this. Would be nice if it were clearer. Perhaps making "debug mode" in bold. Perhaps moving "This builds both LLVM and Clang for debug mode" up one spot, so it's right behind the cmake line. Perhaps even putting sub-bullets under the cmake line.
