Mostly agree, but waiting until clang can compile most of the ports is going to be a really long wait. Lots of projects out there won't want to support anything other than gcc for the forseable future. Presumably the import of clang to the base does not mean the immediate removal of gcc. Is it really such a bad thing to have gcc as a build-dependency for various ported applications?
