You can also browse the cygport and patch files required at:

	https://cygwin.com/git-cygwin-packages/?p=git/cygwin-packages/llvm.git
	https://cygwin.com/git-cygwin-packages/?p=git/cygwin-packages/clang.git

and you can git clone those projects from the listed URLs as a basis for 
building and upgrading: llvm cygport has already been updated there for 9.0.1.

Once you have installed cygport you can browse the local docs using:

	$ cygstart /usr/share/doc/cygport/html/manual/index.html

for more information on what's going on.
