Using clang for ports right now is not a good idea, a lot of things won't compile, some will be miscompiled or whatever, some ports rely on gcc specific/undefined behaviour, etc... We're [slowly] working on it, but for now you should probably stick with gcc for ports. Reporting broken ports won't really help too much, since we know what's broken ourselves. What could help is tracking miscompilations (it was explained earlier how to do it), but even for that we're waiting for sound related bug to be fixed on llvm end, to see how does that affect other broken ports. -- Andrius
