We're likely to have more problems = bootstrapping Clang 3.5 on platforms that weren't supported by clang 3.4 = (e.g. MIPS, PowerPC), but for those the best bet is probably a = clang-binary or similar package that is cross compiled for each of those = platforms. Cross-compiling clang is quite easy, as long as you have a = sysroot set up... Note that this is also likely to be an issue for the base system for = FreeBSD 11. David
