What really confused me was that from the llvm front page, if you click Win Installer, you get a version that seems to expect MSVC headers, while if you click LLVM 3.8.0 you get the page you are linking, where the installers appear to expect MinGW headers.

Or perhaps there is some option in both of them to select the other?

It seems that the target option might be the one I was looking for.

The installed version defaults to x86_64-pc-windows-msvc, where the msvc at the end suggests it is looking for MSVC headers.

If you specify x86_64-w64-mingw32 as target, it uses the mingw-w64 headers.
