[rust-dev] prerelease tarball

[Graydon Hoare]

Hi,

I have a certain amount of release-making machinery wired up now, such 
that by pushing to "distcheck-snap" on origin you will get a tarball and 
.exe uploaded (after a successful "make distcheck") to the dl host. So 
you get something like this:

http://dl.rust-lang.org/dist/rust-prerelease.tar.gz

I'd suggest not clicking on that link though -- the resulting tarball is 
over 100mb since it includes a complete snapshot of LLVM.

Is this ... acceptable? I'm not really sure what to do about it. LLVM is 
too much of a moving target still and our relationship to it is not at 
all stable enough to make "use the system LLVM" terribly practical yet. 
Or so I believe. Am I correct?
