Hello, Matthew.
My file size matches the patched file. I haven't figured out how to get 7-zip to give me checksum information on windows.
Use md5sum utility. It can be successfully found via google.
I rashly copied all the *.o files from my mingw\lib directory to the llvm\lib directory.
This does enable the hello world binary to compile and to function correctly.
Strange. Seems to be some "paths problem? inside llvm-gcc. It really should find that files automatically.
Aha! I just noted that the archive does in fact have the crt*.o files, but they did not end up in my lib directory after
I built the system.
They shouldn't. They actually should be in llvm-gcc/lib directory.
My final question is just what functionality is disabled with the mingw distribution?
Is it just the use of lli?
As of 1.9 - yes.
This used to work with the msvc compiled tools.
This isn't true, since there were no JIT codegen for dllimported
symbols.
Is it possible to recover the missing functionality of the Jit interpreter using msvc to compile these tools?
Recently I've made several fixes to libSystem & codegen (in CVS head):

This will enable to run lli on huge amount of applications. Probably,
you have to apply them to your current 1.9 tree (+patches from
llvm-gcc4-1.9-patched) in order to enable lli for 1.9 release.
