The ports system is not ready to use clang as the only compiler. If you
want to add this hack to your make.conf it's better if you do it
conditionally only for this port like:
.if ${.CURDIR:M*x11/rxvt-unicode*}
CC= clang
CXX= clang++
CPP= clang-cpp
.endif
Binaries and library generated with gcc and clang should be compatible
with each other, so, if you just compile a few ports with clang, no need
to rebuild everything.
