I think Stallman is personally threatened by LLVM.

  How can he not be? In an attempt to protect user freedom, he rejects and blocks useful features in his compiler that users want/need. When he sees them flocking away to another free alternative compiler, he sees it as a sign that LLVM is out to destroy GNU. RMS does not realize that he is planting the seeds of his GNU's destruction.

    I posit that llvm is Apple's attempt to weaken the GPL by striking at the heart of the GNU toolchain by making a better product that people would switch to a more-exploitable license for. Steve jobs did the same to Creative/Diamond with the iPod.
