Relevant comment from Xorg upstream on supporting explicit "llvm-version" naming in their build scripts:

"Mesa's build system supports and should only support officially supported builds of upstream projects - LLVM's cmake and auto* build systems do not have a switch to add a "-3.2" suffix to llvm-config.
Sorry, but we cannot support billions of (user-modified) cases by modifing build system each time - It is hard enough to support official builds.

If people or in this bad case even distributions think they must modify and mess up things it is their own problem"

Resolution NOTOURBUG - https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59967

I guess that makes it pretty clear that not all users want a specific version of LLVM...
