Subject: [PATCH] * Remove disk space requirements, they vary wildly, depend on
 the number of   tools built, the build type, and we don't keep them
 up-to-date on all   platforms * AIX, Linux on PowerPC aren't fully-supported
 systems

 able to assemble, disassemble, analyze, and optimize LLVM bytecode.  Code
