Binaries, Shminaries!!
Why not compile from source code? It took me about one hour to do so (both LLVM and Clang) on a 32-bit Centrino Duo 1.6GHz laptop.
And, since I had the previous version installed (also from source), I was able to compile LLVM and Clang with... LLVM and Clang. Self-hosting compilers FTW!

But then you have to compile twice. Once with the old compiler and then again with the new one.

And I did just that. Hey, I've got two hours to spare on a Saturday afternoon. :)

I hope you didn't forget to funroll all your loops in the process.
Clang has loop funrolling, right?

funrolling; a non-copyright infringing name for the unexpected showing of a eighties music video.
