Here's what the release notes say:


LLVM is known to work on the following platforms:


# Intel and AMD machines running on Win32 using MinGW libraries
      (native).
# Intel and AMD machines running on Win32 with the Cygwin libraries
      (limited support is available for native builds with Visual C++).

I think the LLVM x86 backend uses gas (the GNU assembler) to
produce the final binaries, but you should double check this.
