The script with which I build Clang trunk is

and then have

in autogen.input, with CLANGBUILD = CLANGDIR (though IIRC Lubos used a 
somewhat different setup that did involve setting CLANGBUILD != CLANGDIR).

I once toyed around a little with -fsanitize=undefined, but it took some 
tweaking of solenv/gbuild/ to get the relevant flags properly into the 
build IIRC.  (I have those changes still lying around locally, but never 
came around to look into it again and clean up.  Also, 
-fsanitize=undefined started to fail rather quickly due to problems 
discussed in the thread starting at 
<http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/pipermail/cfe-commits/Week-of-Mon-20130812/086127.html> 
"ubsan: check type_info equality via strcmp," which would need fixing in 
our cppumaker-generated headers.)
