I don't think we should do this; `PATH=/path/to/llvm/ make LLVM=1` works and (my interpretation of what) Masahiro said "if anyone asks for this, here's how we could do that." I don't think I've seen an explicit ask for that. I'd rather LLVM= have 2 behaviors than 3, but I won't hold this patch up over that. Either way:
Right, there has not been an explicit ask for the prefix support yet, although I know I personally would use it,
Then let that be reason enough. :)
