The error message ./configure gives when llvm-gcc is the default compiler is not very helpful. This patch gives a better message.

No. this is different patch. Eric patch is far better. Maybe the best message is,

llvm-gcc is not further supported by ruby.  Use gcc or clang (eg. CC=clang)

Why does configure exit when clang is available? Could we have
configure test for clang first, then test for gcc?

It's annoying that the configure script chooses llvm-gcc when clang is
available on my system.
