Is this driven by -mretpoline?  That is, would we not be as aggressive
with pushing for clang 6 in 11.2 if it weren't for that?  I kind of feel
like we probably wouldn't and would have left it at 5 and let clang 6 be
a FreeBSD 12 thing.  Was -mretpoline backported to clang 5 (I thought
there was some talk of providing patches for clang 5)?
