That's good. My iMac G3 is too slow to build the base system, so it has been running a macppc snapshot where I rebuilt kernel, libc, and a few other things with clang. I know that clang can't build bsd.rd unless I use crunchgen -M; see my mails of 17 and 18 Mar. I recently learned that libunwind doesn't work on my G3. I built (with base-clang) a small program to throw a C++ exception; it crashes at an illegal instruction because libunwind uses altivec and my G3 doesn't have altivec. (G4 and G5 cpus probably have altivec.) I can run clang; LLVM and clang almost never throw C++ exceptions. I also noticed that some .S files in libc give a clang warning, but I didn't find why. --George
