+ <dd>Path to the LLVM C/C++ FrontEnd to be used with this LLVM configuration.
+ The value of this option should specify the full pathname of the C/C++ Front
+ End to be used. If this option is not provided, the PATH will be searched for
+ a program named <i>llvm-gcc</i> and the C/C++ FrontEnd install directory will
+ be inferred from the path found. If the option is not given, and no llvm-gcc
+ can be found in the path then a warning will be produced by
+ <tt>configure</tt> indicating this situation. LLVM may still be built with
+ the <tt>tools-only</tt> target but attempting to build the runtime libraries
+ will fail as these libraries require llvm-gcc and llvm-g++. See
+ <a href="#installcf">Install the GCC Front End</a> for details on installing
+ the C/C++ Front End. See
+ <a href="CFEBuildInstrs.html">Bootstrapping the LLVM C/C++ Front-End</a>
+ for details on building the C/C++ Front End.</dd>
