Details

Description:
The package "llvm" under x86_64 contains two header files: llvm-Config-llvm-config.h and llvm-Config-config.h. They work well with package "lib32-llvm" (32-bit) but not with "libx32-llvm" (x32 ABI).

Reason is that, __WORDSIZE for x86_64-x32 is 32, the same as it is for i686. But x32 has different header files delivered in AUR package "libx32-llvm".

A simple solution is offered in attachment. The fix should have no harm for normal "llvm" and "lib32-llvm" users at all, but could help "libx32-llvm" users a lot from hacking.


Steps to reproduce:
* Uninstall lib32-llvm
* Install libx32-llvm from AUR
* Write a simple .c to include llvm-config.h and compile with -mx32 (gcc-multilib-x32)
* Expect failure: Cannot find llvm-config-32.h
