10. Run "autoupdate libtool.m4 ltdl.m4" in the llvm/autoconf/m4 directory.
This should correctly update the macro definitions in the libtool m4
files to match the version of autoconf that LLVM uses. This converts
AC_HELP_STRING to AS_HELP_STRING and AC_TRY_LINK to AC_LINK_IFELSE, amongst
other things. You may need to manually adjust the files.
