Subj. Also, sould we change this check to something else? As it is a little bit annoying to fix it with every changing of LLVM version.

I know nothing of LLVM, re-assigning to @alexcrichton

Seems a bit early to update that. We're using parts of LLVM that don't have a stable API, these might change between now and the time that 3.7 is actually released. So we shouldn't claim to be compatible with 3.7 just yet. I'd rather have that check only succeed for released LLVM versions. There could be a flag that skips the version check for those who want to build against LLVM trunk. Just my 2 cents.

Yes, you are right. I was too optimistic, it fails with 3.7 atm.

@jauhien would you be interested in adding the flag that @dotdash mentioned? Otherwise we may want to close this as it'll need some extra legwork to get up to date with 3.7

When trying to build against a newer, local LLVM version it might be
preferable to have a flag to disable the LLVM version check instead of
having to modify the configure script.

Fixes rust-lang#21998
