I built it a while back when I added basic support for avr to clang. Dylan McKay, who IIRC has corresponded in this list before, owns the backend, and has added a bunch of support to clang as well. His primary motivation is to get the Rust programming language running on the avr, again IIRC. Last I checked, I still had to use the binutils linker, as lld didn't yet know about the avr. The generated code did look suboptimal compared to gcc, but I didn't play around much to be honest.
