Hi, People are still ironing out kinks/differences with clang. Anyone saying otherwise is likely pushing an agenda. :-) Thus I think adding clang-only code to the system right now is very, very premature. There still seem to be reasons to run systems on GCC instead of clang. If you have a need for new instruction support, perhaps look at adding it to our base GCC for the time being? Remember, you're not the only consumer of the system. :-) Adrian
