I have been doing this (on a daily basis) with both head & stable/9 on my home "build machine" and my laptop since 12 Jul 2012; I have seen no problems or issues. (I build my ports under stable/8 & have /usr/local in common across all 4 slices on each machine.) Here's what's in my /etc/src.conf for stable/9: CC=3Dclang CXX=3Dclang++ CPP=3Dclang-cpp WITH_LIBCPLUSPLUS=3Dyes When I update my "production" machines at home from stable/8 to stable/9 (probably shortly after 9.1 is released), they will (by necessity) also migrate to FreeBSD built with llvm/clang (as they get installed what the build machine builds).
