-<p>Compiling LLVM requires that you have several software packages
-installed:</p>
-
-<ul>
- <li><a href="http://gcc.gnu.org">GCC 3.x with C and C++ language
- support</a> (See <a href="#brokengcc">below</a> for specific version info)</li>
-
- <li><a href="http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/make">GNU Make</a></li>
-
- <li><a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/flex">Flex</a></li>
-
- <li><a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/bison/bison.html">Bison</a></li>
-</ul>
-
-<p>There are some additional tools that you may want to have when working with
-LLVM:</p>
-
-<ul>
- <li><A href="http://www.gnu.org/software/automake">GNU Automake</A></li>
- <li><A href="http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf">GNU Autoconf</A></li>
- <li><A href="http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/m4">GNU M4</A>
-
- <p>If you want to make changes to the configure scripts, you will need GNU
- autoconf (2.57 or higher), and consequently, GNU M4 (version 1.4 or
- higher). You will also need automake. Any old version of
- automake from 1.4p5 on should work; we only use aclocal from that
- package.</p></li>
-
- <li><A href="http://www.codesourcery.com/qm/qmtest">QMTest 2.0.3</A></li>
- <li><A href="http://www.python.org">Python</A>
-
- <p>
- These are needed to use the LLVM test suite. Please note that newer
- versions of QMTest may not work with the LLVM test suite. QMTest 2.0.3
- can be retrieved from the QMTest CVS repository using the following
- commands:</p>
