I am trying to compile HEAD directly clone from the git with clang like
CC='clang' CXX='clang++' ./configure --prefix=$(pwd)/bin
make
I am getting the following warning:
/bin/bash ./libtool --tag=CC --mode=compile clang -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I.

Its simply a warning saying that the if is always false (then it should be
avoided). But as -Werror is set in /bfd/Makefile it treat it as an error and it
stops the compilation
To compile it with the warning I had to remove -Werror from WARN_CFLAGS and
WARN_CFLAGS_FOR_BUILD in /bfd/Makefile but I guess the proper solution would be
removing the if at line 8280 of bfd/elf.c as it is always false
