Bug Description
Ubuntu 10.10 already packages clang (the LLVM-based C compiler), and ships that with support for the "Blocks" C language extension, but does not package compiler-rt, which is needed to link Blocks-using code. This is a prerequisite for Linux systems to offer something equivalent to Mac OS X's "Grand Central Dispatch" functionality.

Notes: compiler-rt can be built to only offer the Blocks runtime and not a full libgcc replacement.
